Yes
Stuck for words really, majestic beauty with a chilling call.

Taken in the wild in North West England, I took 300 shots and these are the first I have processed using my limited PP skills.

Truly a beautiful bird to see, be near and hear.

Hi what a beautiful capture I've never seen one in the wild. never mind photographed one thats fantastic. has to be #2 for me.(y)
 
Thanks mate, a brilliant morning, a long hard walk to where they are, but well worth it.....(y)
 
i can see these every morning from my balcony but cant get anywhere near as good a picture of them :( very jealous indeed :) well done :)


What lens were these taken with by the way ? Is this one of the RSPB monitored pairs ?

I`m going to assume they are monitered Ian.

Some were taken with a D200 F4 300 with a 1.7 TC, others were shot with a D300 and an 80-400 F4-5.6.
 
Last ones before you all get bored to death.
