You'll never guess where I went this past weekend...yup, back to The World Bird Sanctuary !! Got a few shots...same types of raptors as before, just different birds. They're sooo neat and I hope you like!!
Raptors makes me wonder again that birds are the immediate descendants of them big RAPTORS who are my beloved DINOSAURS like TRex and Big Al [Allosaurus] !!!
That only shows how narrow minded I am.
Very nice image seriously, dear Randy !!!! ['nice' meaning of course the effect of quite mixed emotions this particular expression of the face evokes ...] LOL
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

I took advantage of the link you provided, Randy. What a great place to go and "hang" out. I wish we had a similar facility within striking distance. Thanks for sending this one, and I'm glad to see you got over your drunk state enough to show us this...j/k j/k j/k

What a tremendous picture in all senses of the word. The subject is just magnificent and the quality of the picture is wonderful. Altogether, a fantastic picture.
Hello Randy...You birds of prey pictures are really beautiful and this one is magnificent....Over here in the UK their is a decline in numbers of birds of prey....They are being driven by a variety of human-induced threats, such as habitat loss and degradation and electrocution by power lines...Other issues include climate change and direct persecution in the form of illegal shooting and poisoning.....They are so beautiful and I thankyou for this lovely picture....All the best....Mick.
