:-) Thanks Margaret and Nanny.
Margaret, I thought about your Osprey photos when I made that one. Wish I had some that good.

Here's one that I hope you can see. The birds are pretty small in the frames.

I was photographing a Bald Eagle's nest with two chicks in it. The Mom and Dad were carrying food and nesting materials back and forth to the nest and one would usually perch in the nest or in this tree right next to the nest. This American Kestrel flew up in the same tree as a Bald Eagle. The Kestrel would duck down everytime the eagle would look back at him. It was hilarious. That went on for a few minutes with several back and forths. I cracked up. Finally the Kestrel decided that there must be a better place to perch and he took off, looking back while he flew.
