Some Spanish Eagles

Post by Ross Forsyth » Thu Mar 22, 2018 6:27 pm

Last month I went out to Spain to spend some time in a couple of hides in the El Parmera mountains to photograph Spanish Imperial and Golden Eagles.
Temps down to -10 overnight meant some uncomfortable hours in the hides but I think the results were worth it.

Hi Ross, belting shots buddy, I reckon you deserve every one of those stunning shots for sitting out in freezing conditions to capture them. :clap:
Well done Sir.
All the best

Fantastic set of shots Ross. Challenging conditions, but worth the effort.
