Hey Bone, I think that is an immature male cooper's hawk?

Thanks Bone, I took it during the really cold snap in mid Dec. I think it was about 2 or 3 degrees outside. I had to crop it because I shot it thru the balusters on the deck and you could see them.

Nice pic Headshot, I like the way you can see the crystals in the hair. Here is another boring sheep pic.

Thanks Huntnphool, I like how the sheep are the same color s as the backgraund, kinda looks like the painting of winter scenes with something hidden in the background. I can't remember the lady right now...but still very cool pics.

Here is another of her brother from the same time. He was dead asleep

Actually we got a warm spell last week.  Just in time to melt the snow before my snowshoes arrive on Tuesday  :bash:

There was a ton of flooding throughout the palouse region.  I did not see a single coyote or bird the whole trip.  Which was to be expected since I threw a rifle and shotgun in the pick-up.  I am loving everyone's deer and sheep pics.

I think the Porsche would have to go Josh before I purchased a $9,000.00 lens or I would be sleeping with both out in the garage, you can rent them pretty cheap for a couple good days of shooting.

Head-shot-  I think the lady you're thinking of is Bev Doolittle.  She does awesome paintings.

No snow but freezing fog the morning I took these shots.

Wow, GREAT picture Ricochet.  I love it how everything is out of focus in the picture except for the deer head.  Big buck.  I gotta get down there with you and cameraguy.  That is one of my regrets those trips didn't happen this year.  I won't make the mistake again.

Pope-
I'd like to take credit for planning the buck shot but actually it was just too dark to shoot any way except wide open.   Remember, the old 80-400 VR isn't the fastest glass around but its what I've got so I try to do my best.  Set aside some time next November, the rut is definitely the time to be shooting those bucks.  Hope to see you then.
