Hi there,

was out and about today and saw 4 different raptors in a 20km stretch,
they are not the best shots I have taken but here are 2 of the better shots, just for a look. Also got some shots of a brown falcon, none decent.

Hi Rick,

using a Canon 350d (digital slr) and the canon 70-200mm F/4 L series lense, which of all my lenses is my favorite. I am saving for the Canon 600mm F/4 L but it will be a while!

For now there I can get shots clear enough for a record of birds I have seen and to get an ID of birds. Will keep a record in a book, just to see how many bird species I can see in 1 year. In that time maybe I will get a cracking, printable shot

Regards Darren
