Some years ago we had the thrill of seeing this bird close to. An adult flew off, but the inexperienced juvenile allowed me to approach within full-frame distance and take dozens of shots in all poses! In fact I see one of these shots is already in Opus!

.... and that's another cracking picture from that session Peter.

Magnificent raptors these, aren't they. I see this guy still has his gape too, so guess he wasn't too long fledged.

Excellent work laddie.
