Got this bird yesterday, it was right on the ground and waited for me to get real close. I took several photos from different distances. Also got some on a tree branch after it flew away.

Gee this is a cracking picture GB. It's an improvement on the current Opus picture, so I'm putting this one up now.

There's only 4 pictures in the Gallery now, so this one is very welcome - thanks so much.

This beautiful shot looks more like a juv. Barred Forest Falcon than a Collared due to short tail and pattern on the neck. Still a fantastic shot!
