These are wonderful. Would you mind giving some details about how you captured these, tripod? gimbal head? Hand heald? What lens? How you seemingly got so close? What AF settings? Sorry for all the questions but I am trying to learn some wildlife photography and these hawks are plentiful in the area. I also have attempted to photograph these birds in flight and it is very difficult at best. Again great photos
