not been on here much this week due to a shoulder/neck pain so excuse any lack of comments
Had the most awesome day at Claire Carter and Hawkeye Bird of Prey Photography Workshop in Thoresby Park. A privilege to get close to such beautiful birds and I learned such a lot about bird photography that I hope I can put in to practice in future. My photos (just a few here out of 100s I took today) are pale imitations of what is achievable but I'm happy with (some of) my efforts with limited kit.

A Harris Hawk with his landing gear engaged. These hawks are native to the arid Southwest, though I saw this one at a Raptor Conservancy in Canada. The bird is beautiful with bold markings of dark brown, chestnut red, and white; long yellow legs, and yellow markings on its face. The most social of North American raptors, these birds are often found in groups, cooperatively attending nests and hunting together as a team.
Let this be a lesson to always bring your camera with you. I was running some errands and suddenly saw this fella on a road sign.
I did not have my camera with me. I flew home, grabbed my camera and came back as quick as I could.
Lucky me for me, he was still there!
