I enjoyed myself so much on the first Introduction to Birds of Prey photograph that I decided to do it again. It was well worth it from my perspective so I hope that these shots reflect that. I tried to do slightly different things to last time and it helped that the barn owl was more co-operative this time with her flying.

Harris Hawk

This hawk was being chased by a couple blackbirds and after that it took a break on top of the Olive Garden entrance and had to pray for a meal and that it was no longer getting chased.

this eagle was shot in the wild and lost his eyesight in both eyes. He was rescued by the Alberta Birds of Prey Foundation.
