I am really pleased with this capture. Some great detail in there and a good look at the nictitating membrane, a second eyelid that many birds have to help keep their eyes clean.

It is prime time for these gorgeous raptors here and I am getting pics of them almost every time I venture out. So much fun! See more of them here.
