I just cannot express the feeling I get from your fantastic capture of the Red Tail Hawk. it is awe inspiring to me.
A.M. Ruttle replied

Hi Flowers, I’m delighted and tickled that you are so moved by this hawk! I’m used to be a glider pilot so I get goose bumps when I watch big bigs fly… so glad to have company!
whalegeek

That’s particularly nice, a raptor on the wing. WOW! Darn good image!
A.M. Ruttle replied

Thanks so much, whalegeek!
Brian Dodd

A.M. Ruttle replied

Thanks so much, Alana! p.s. Have you checked out whalegeek’s shots?
Gene Walls

Congratulations on your very well-deserved feature!

Superb photograph! I just love this wonderful image! I have been stalking a particular Red-Tail for years, and I have yet to get a good sharp image of him in full flight. That has become my #1 photographic goal.

Your beautiful “bokeh” background is “simply to die for”! This is an absolutely fantastic piece of work!!!
A.M. Ruttle replied

Thanks so much, Gene; I have stopped for a lot of redtails, but never gotten a better one than this. Good luck in your quest; the process sure is fun! Thanks for the rave review!!
Becky Hermanson

Pip Gerard

so majestic. I can’t help but love and be so impressed by birds of prey.
A.M. Ruttle replied

HI Pip, so glad you like it. This is a wild bird, but we have a raptor recovery center here in Jackson Hole, and I like sending folks to their short tour so that they can see raptors up close; they are so beautiful. Catching them in the wild is my game though!
