Made me raise an eyebrow. It looks so ridiculous for America's national symbol, but it was hilarious at the same time.

XD

Yeah well, they are all dignity until.....Β  We've caught them bathing in Myakka lake a few times too and then dignity goes right out the window in favor of bedraggled feathers and a lot of silly noise.

I really need to more photos of the raptors at the bird Sanctuary where I work. Β They have amazing expressions sometimes.

There's no such things as too many raptor shots.

Whoah, I thought he was dead for a second. Not a good look, but definitely an interesting capture. It's not something you see every day, so I love how unique it is and how it shows us something these birds probably do quite often.
