Harris Hawk, Hawkfest

TL120 with flash

Every year I go to Holiday Beach in the fall, this is near Point Pelee Ontario, the southernmost point in Canada. This is where Lake Huron is the most narrow, so lots of birds and monarchs pass by on their migrations.

This was my first attempt using flash with the TL120. This falconer is standing under a tree, in deep shade, with a beautiful Harris Hawk. These birds are from Central and South America, this is not one of the many raptors that we see migrating here. This picture is from about 2 years ago.

Lake Huron in February

Sputnik F22

This was taken with a sputnik in February, quite a few years ago, at one of the great lakes. It should have been very windy and unbearably cold. I was hoping to take some winter pictures. But it was warm and calm in spite of my having a stereo camera with me.
