At an SCRA model rocket launch today at the Santa Fe Dam I saw this handsome juvenile red tailed hawk hanging out on a post watching the rockets. #birdphotoraphy #birdsofMasotodon #Birders

Rainbow bee eater delivering food to his babies. Nb this IS a nesting photo (the babies are in a burrow - you can just see the metal grid the council places to protect them). These particular birds are extremely habituated to humans and comfortable come and go and continue their normal behaviour even when I was quite close. The bee eaters at my local wouldn't dream of letting me get this close to their burrows and I wouldn't try - the last thing I ever want to do is interrupt. When I do take photos at nests I keep my distance, don't set up tripods, keep my time short and don't invite friends. #birds #birdphotoraphy #photography
