I took some time owing today and headed for Lyndeshore Marsh. I was well rewarded for my effort with a good variety of subjects.

For a Hawk this guy was pretty cooperative and hung around for a few shots. Not sure what type of Hawk he is.

I was lucky enough to even capture a few images of a Harrier Hawk.

Hey, I was thinking of you and Ray today, now that the sun has finally put in an appearance. Glad you had a chance to get out and shoot. And what wonderful results you got!! They're all awesome, but I especially love the colour and detail in the blue jay shots. You guys are gonna have to show me this trail some time.
