It was a shock to see this bird soaring silently overhead . I barely managed to get this shot .

Nice catch! Especially since they are not very large for raptors.

Nice indeed. I had just about the same experience a couple of weeks ago and ended up with about the same shot.

I like your idea of close to me... it's some 294 miles or 5 hours 28 minutes according to Google maps.

It is fulfilling to have images appreciated by those I admire .

Well, if they advertised their presence, prey might be a tad harder to find.
