An awesome series of images here, Peter. All frames are excellent and I love the various wing positions. Great job. ---

My fav of these fine shots is the first one. Love the extended talons, the flying position, and the background texture really works. Well done! ---

Fantastic detail in all, Peter, especially for a flight shot. I like those extended talons in the first and the wing position in the second. The background has some complementary colors and improves the image over a blank sky. Well done. ---

They are such fun birds to photograph! Excellent capture of this fella. I too am watching a few nests near us in WA state and babies are just hatching here. You really nailed these shots! ---
