I think you can stop practicing, Gene. These shots are great! Love how he's chowing down and not letting you disturb his meal at all.
:-) Thank you. As many times as I've seen these critters, I never saw one actually chomping down on something. Glad you like these and thanks for looking.

:) Thank you, Angela! I appreciate your comments. The tubes sure made a difference in getting me closer without the colse restriction of my lenses.
My friend from L.I. tells me the raptor migration at Ft. Tilden (spelling?) is in full swing now. Have you been there, yet?
Glad you like these and thanks for looking.

Gene, I'm not familiar with Ft. Tilden. I googled it, I think it is in the city, too far from me. I'm all the way out on Long Island. Thanks for that info though!

Hi Angela,
I Googled Fort Tilden and got a bunch of links to it on LI (at Breezy Point)
including a map of where it is. Its a National Park.

Thanks for that info Gene, but that is still too far. It's in Queens and I'm all the way out in Suffolk County.
