The Babes Have Arrived!

Pair of Bald Eagles at the Llano nest, Central Texas. The eggs have just hatched. I observed some feeding of the young, but they are still very small..
I used a Canon 1D Mark III, 300mm f/2.8 lens + 3x extender..Around 10:00am December 27th 2009.
With this setup I missed a great opportunity. Just after I arrived, one of the parents flew directly overhead & across the road to to a nearby field..
There I witnessed the eagle catch a small rodent & return to the nest to feed the young..

Deficit Neutral??

This young whitetail is giving the current administration the raspberries..
And if you believe "ObamaCare" will be deficit neutral, then I have some beachfront property in Arizona you might interested in!

Western Scrub Jay

Blue and gray above, with a pale underside broken up by a blue necklace. In birds, the color blue depends on lighting, so Western Scrub-Jays often look simply dark.
I used a Canon 1D Mark III, Canon 300mm f/2.8 lens + 2x tele through a glass window, morning light. F/7.1, 1/640th, ISO 640

Wind Beneath My Wings

Bald Eagles at the Llano Texas nest off of Hwy # 29.
Only access is from the roadside, and the nest is quite distant.
I used a Canon 300mm f/2.8 and stacked 2x + 1.4x teleconverters.
Cropped 25% as well
