    wizard shot

    heck of a hour this morning when a female merlin decided to take shelter from the wind right above the door of the hide i was in ,initially only me and my buddy there and we had a full hour of shots before the word spread and the crowds appeared ,by which time i had climbed the fence to get some eye level shots .a weird weekend with just one star bird per day ,but i can't complain .

    thats the way to do it !! by blackfox wildlife and nature imaging, on Flickr
