Wonderful photos!! The eagle and condor and goose are my favorites. What did you do to make the chicken mad?

Thank you luvmypets :)

It was in a cage at a county fair. I have learned how to shoot through cages, fencing, and screening without it showing.

Here is another one that actually was mad at me. This male dove was courting a female. I am skilled at dove call, and started calling to the female. She actually left him and landed on a branch near me and was calling back to me.He was REALY angry.

My goodness! These are excellent bird photos! The shot of the baby Red-winged BB is one of the best I've seen. Third is a Eurasian Collared Dove.
