    You better check a map, you'll see that all of these birds are in Iowa.

    Great shots kid.
    I can't believe you got these up so quickly.

    //EDIT\\

    Two maps, different story.
    One shows the lock in Il, and the dam in Iowa.
    One shows the dividing line in the middle of the river.
    We both get to be right on this one.

    Nice variety in this set thumb.gif The first and last are especially cool. The first one for perfect timing catching the talons extended. The last one for the simultaneous display of hardware and acrobatics. Very nice clap.gif

    And who can blame you guys if you don't want to tell anyone which state you were REALLY in rolleyes1.gif

    Amazing birds and well captured. Looks like ya'll had a nice day...

    Just awesome, Adam! clap.gif Great action and all very unique poses. I can't say I have a favorite, but that "tandem" shot is really different.

    You guys are really making me jealous!!!

    Superb images of the baldies! Wow. I have actually never seen one carrying fish in its mouth. I have always seen them carrying fish with their talons.

    They're all amazing and beautiful shots but that fourth one just says "raw power" locked on to his/her target. Incredible!
