How beautiful he is, and a beautiful shot as well, Jim! I'd never even heard of this bird before.

Good one, Jim. Looks like he's wearing a kilt. :-) :-)
Morning Earl and thanks for looking I appreciate it.Glad you liked it It does look like a kilt Earl and it was doing an Highland fling when the falconer was handling it, she had a small hole in her guantlet and her little finger was peeping out and the bird was trying it's best to have a bite of it.She said it was powerful enough to bite it off. :shock: :shock:

Birds of Prey are one of my favorites, and your capture is outstanding! Can I ask what equipment and settings you used?

Thank you so much Jim. Earl has given me advice in a PM attempting to help me, being a newbie to close up and he also recommended using a zoom lens. My next close up (if it ever quits raining here in Colorado) will be with my 70-200 Tamron, and leave my 90mm macro at home.
Your images are stellar!
