Hi Dean,

The revised universe is a major improvement over the original version (IOHO), further enhancing the overall image - which was already excellent!

(So that makes it super-massive-excellent... ).

Keep up the great work - your images are always a real joy to behold...

Hi Only RF,

Well controlled captures of beautiful creatures. Presented amid their natural habitat, there are scintillating colours on show here (and very nice eye-pop!).

Thank you for sharing...

Thanks. I have not come across of too many in the sky yet. They will come.

Noticed some aerial battles way off in the distance (heavy crops). Neither Mr. Eurasian sparrowhawk nor Mr. Japanese buzzard were putting up with any nonsense from Mr. Raven.

Hi David,

Drama in the skies!

You did very well to spot the unfolding action in the first instance and then even better to find, track and capture it with your gear - no mean feat in itself.

Well done - and thank you for sharing...

P&K

(PS. Hopefully they all came to an amicable-ish agreement).

Thank you. The raven amicably left the scene. It didn't like the odds of getting tag-teamed. As a side note, one of the combatants, the Eurasian sparrowhawk (pic below), can be a bit difficult to distinguish from the Japanese sparrowhawk. Luckily, the Eurasian has 6 individual wingtips (5 for the Japanese).
