On a recent trip to RSPB Bowling Green Marsh, I spotted this Peregrine Falcon causing havoc amongst the waders. It was interesting to watch and photograph. Unfortunately for him (but not the waders) he didn’t catch anything.

While watching various waterfowl we were interrupted by about four dozen Canada Geese coming in for a landing. I got several shots of them flying overhead.

Very cool shots.
Gotta say - some of the birds in that first shot look like they are coming in for a crash landing!

Yes Phil but I am that distance away and much further a lot of the time, if I was to post a pre cropped image I think it would be a suprise for many people. But a yes thanks for comments as always and I am sure you can get some great shots as well

Turkey Vultures are one of the easiest birds to photograph in flight. This one flew over pretty close as I was getting shots of other birds in my yard.
