Birds of Prey in action. Original Photo series.
Have to say these are amazing birds, they have such grace and power.
I took these at a birds of prey show for rehabilitation centre in england. They are not the easiest to photograph, with such speed in their flight and would be something that's much much harder to do in the wild.
I was a little nervous being in the flight path of this hawk!!
My daughter was brave and loved being able to "hold" a hawk.... I was nervous before..... this made me panic abit. :D
I'm still amazed by the instantaneous lift these hawks achieve!
Not just hawks at the show, but some beautiful owls as well.
Hope you that you all enjoy these little moments in time that I've captured :-)
Cheers
Nick
Birds of prey are amazing and very stealth; you have to keep a sharp eye out for them, and listen for them, otherwise they're like ghosts :) Especially the hawks!
