Bald Eagle

Sorry for the delayed reply Desmond. Glad you like the photos! Thanks for taking care of that as well Ashley!

Being able to get into more than 5 missions is a glitch when using Chrome as your internet browser. I'll remove it from "Birds of Illinois" mission for you, Bil

WOW! Picture #3
AMAZING! Picture #2
INCREDIBLE! Picture #1

Thanks Maria! I got 6 missions purely by accident. I noticed that I had marked Birds of Illinois, and went back to edit it and put Iowan Biodiversity. When editing, it allowed me to uncheck, but when I updated, it kept Birds of Illinois for some reason. I tried to fix it three or four times, but it continued to do the same thing.

Wonderful flight shots! How did you manage to get into 6 missions?

Thank you so much Sckel! It's nice that you noticed I was gone. Life can definitely get in the way, as it has for me. Thanks for your kind words as always:)

great job, bill. I missed your photos. happy new year. :)

Dang! In my account with my students again! Not sure how I got logged in to one. Anyways Knapperbill is me:)

Thanks Logan! I'm lucking to be in this area and see these gorgeous birds often. It's amazing how they have bounced back. I've lived here most of my life and didn't even see one until I was in my late teens. Now they seem to be everywhere!
Thanks DrNamgyaIT,Sherpa. The challenge lies in withstanding the cold temperatures for several hours and finding the best lighting. This area has the sun facing me most of the day, but there are a couple of prime hours where the sun is positioned just right.

You might have put in quite a lot of time and effort for these photos. Nice series anyway, Bill!

Beautiful beaker. Glad too see the eagles again!

Back at ya Bill. Happy and prosperous New Year to you and yours!

Thank you very much James! Happy New Year!

Fantastic shots
