Hi - could you confirm this was taken within the dates specified in the first post please. Thanks.

Seeing my first shot was disputed I will try this one which I took today.

 

[mrtoad]

those wings are facing down...does that count..

 

[whyone]

Probably fails as only one wing is being spread!

At least it's feet are in focus.

 

[sturs]

Tried something a bit different?

 

[mrtoad]

hmm...spread your grass?

it certainly adds some other information than just a bird with wings outstretched

its got to be something different...to catch the imaginations

this is a bald eagle being harrased by a raven, as the eagle went too close to the ravens nest site

[Joe T]

Entries closing tonight folks!

[Ladybird]

OK, I will try this one from today!

 

[Doog]

I hate you all. Usually my atempts at this are just black blurred blobs against a blown sky. A little practice this lunch time at work showed a little improvement but still miles to go. No fancy birds available sorry.

 

[Joe T]
