Northern Harrier

Posted By Robert Watters
Shot the same day as the N. Shrike shot so the same bad weather conditions (snowing).
Although my Sibley's guide indicates that they are a year round species for my area this is the first one I've ever come across. smile

Caught this guy purched on a snowy telephone pole today. Used a little fill flash with the help of my Better Beamer flash extender. smile

Another Red-tailed Hawk

Posted By Robert Watters
Probably the same bird because it's the same location as the other shot, just different perspective.

Here are a few more shots from the same session from about a week ago.
These are prime focus with a C8 and a Canon 300D.

Starved Rock ice falls

Starved Rock State Park in IL. This one is from the St. Louis Canyon.
That's my oldest son on the left.

This is where the stream that feeds Wildcat Canyon's waterfall meets the Illinois River.

Hairy Woodpecker

Posted By Robert Watters
I normally only get Downy Woodpeckers at the suit feeder but this female Hairy showed up a couple weeks ago and has been coming back fairly regular. The bigger size compared to the Downy is quite apparent.
