"Birds of prey" picture thread

Spotted this guy while driving a country road this weekend. He was feasting on a pile of waste from a recent hog slaughter at a local farm.

Awesome!

Wouldn't have counted for this contest - but my son and I were coming home from hockey practice and caught this hooter our driveway (this was last year). To get an idea on its size - that's a possum under its claws.

that's either a very large owl or a very small possum! cool to see that. the only "dead" possums i see are the ones my dane boy brings me. strange, after he drops them and walks away, they seem to come back to life. LOL

She's old, she needs to get her ideas from somewhere!!! :D

I shouldn't have to remind YOU Nina, but let the gas out through the rectum or suffer brain farts and crappy ideas! :wildone:

see jesse's post. :D
 
^^Those pictures are awesome^^

If need be, I'll start posting some of my Shepherd's kills...I got a few on video too. :p

So far - 13 groundhogs, 2 racoons (both at once), a possum, and a chipmunk.
 
my dog's better 'n your dog. he's killed the same possum probably 27 times now. once, he even brought it in the house (damn dog door). see, he pounces on it and immediately the possum, well, plays possum. no fun once it's "dead" so bentley drops it and walks away. go outside 30 minutes later, possum is gone. it lives under the barn in the pen where my pot bellied pigs are. my dog's not the sharpest tool in the shed. *sigh*

erin, those pics are awesome!
 
Outrageous!!!! Spectacular!!! I'll think of more when my tongue gets off the floor!!!!!
 
jesse, could you pick my tongue up off the floor while you're at it?

those pics are breathtaking!
 
Awesome pics! Why did everyone wait until after a winner was selected to start posting?

:facepalm:
 
Possibly because the most recently posted pics were not fresh shots taken specifically for this topic.

Old pics are not eligible for topic judging.
 
I'm not sure if the comments are directly aimed at me?
I just see the topic and shared a picture didn't realise that there are rules.
My apologies,I took the pictures last year.
Just thought you may like to see them
Sorry
 
None needed. Reef Bass hit the nail on the head. I would have been sorry not to see them.
 
Me as well. Your posts are welcome and appreciated.

These weekly topic threads aspire to motivate picking up one's camera and shooting something with intent, versus wading through one's catalog of existing images and finding something which fits the topic.

And thus there tend to be additional images posted after a winner is announced. :)
