Default Red Tailed Hawk
I had a very interesting photoshoot the other day of some birds of prey. Shame I could not see them fly but as the birds are molting at the moments the keeper thought it better not to fly them. I hope to have another chance in a month or so as I really would love the opportunity to try to photograph these magnificent birds in flight.

Hope you enjoy this selection xxx

Great captures of a magnificent bird. They're all so good, I don't think I can pick a favorite.
