Found this fella flying over 2mil + homes and such, Go figure

Perhaps he was looking for a shar pei to snack on....or perhaps a lhasa apso??

I bet he was just cruisin' for chics...lookin' for a "rich one" to land.

Nice shots as usual. I can't wait to find some raptors to shoot. There are suppose to be some bald eagles up the road a bit. Maybe I'll get up there this week and see what I can find?

Cheers

Very nice Ben


Where you find million dollar homes, you usually find large expanses of grass, brush or trees. Prime feeding grounds for raptors :eat Not only that, but this may even be ancestral feeding grounds for these birds. Until that is, some jerks came along and built wooden boxes all over it :cry

Good work and I hope none of the rich folk called the police on ya....

Sorry won't work they already got my name, #, BD etc. etc.
Now they just go by me and laugh, pretty much like everyone else that knows me
By the By TC actually stands for "Top Cat" one of my favorite characters
