I was supposed to be camping in the mountains today but a sick kid (he’s okay – just a virus) required us to come home early yesterday.
With some time on my hands I headed to Longmont, Colorado where I spent the morning with a family of these raptors. This is the adult male.
I wasn’t particularly successful getting fishing shots unfortunately but managed bunches of posing and flight shots. I just love these birds.
