And, always read Susan's posts.
Sound advice!
I'm still working on #2. Great pics! Amen to #9.
AMEN to all!
Good advice for people who don't love raptors yet and great reminders for those of us who already love them!
Great pics Susan.
Beautiful.
Beautifully done, Susan!
I have learned to drive while looking at the top of telephone polls, and I've kept my sense of humor but I haven't learned to keep my feathers unruffled :o)
That photo of the owl in the buckets makes me melt.
This is awesome, Susan. But who isn't already in love with raptors?
Awesome and true
Great post, I'll take notes and follow the advice ;)
