Here's the eagle that was hanging around my sister's house in cape Breton.

The utility pole fed a detached garage a bit in from the road.

My brother-in-law would throw a frozen fish onto the field on occasion.

That's a great picture.



My younger son has become a somewhat accomplished photographer and

specializes in wildlife and landscape photography. One of his pictures

recently won first prize in a Boston photography contest.



Here's a link to a slide show of some of his wildlife images. He spends

his "off" time from work tromping around in local conservation lands

looking for subjects to photograph.



The second link is some of the landscape images taken locally: He had

several of them printed on canvas and has sold a few.

Nice pictures.. he seems to have a talent for photographing wildlife.
I'm betting he has a full frame camera with a serious telephoto lens.


Not really. He started out using a used Nikon D70. In fact, I bought
it from Harry a few years ago. Then he "inherited" my wife's Nikon D300
and several lenses that she had for it, including a pricey
auto-stabilizing telephoto. He also uses a Sony alpha NEX-6 with
several lenses he has for it. One is a macro lens that is incredible.
