I've just viewed the most fantastic images of birds - I have never seen
finer, EVER!

Other folk may view them he- http://www.primordial-light.com/aves.html

I've made a note to explore David's work further when I return home to
my iMac!

Thank you for providing the route to find you, Davoud! :-D

You are TOO modest, Sir! ;-)

I shall explore your various sites in more depth when I'm back at home,
David. I have, though, had a quick look on Flickr - you've posted some
amazing work! :-)

Done. Very nice! Coincidence: I live near the Severn River in Maryland.
Named after the your /real/ River Severn. I say /real/ because
Maryland's Severn is not a river at all, but one of many inlets
attached to the Chesapeake Bay.

Yes they are quite good and nicely framed, makes me feel I should
go out and take some photos of my local birds, mostly pigeons, so
not quite as glamorous.



Be sure to strip off your exif data if you do so. Wouldn't want
stalker David learning your approx whereabouts. You'd be sorry if he
did.

Difficult, getting that close to a bird like those in the wild and not spooking them.


Unless they are acclimated to people, or you use a long lens..

The images at the links you posted, Peter, are not a patch on the
quality of those photographs taken by Davoud (in MY opinion, anyway).

....or unless you use astonishingly silly, extreme crops, and an unnecessary

So, if you are going to drag out old birdie shots, I have a few to add to the
conversation.

OK. You certainly are entitled to your opinion. Reasons for your opinion
would be appreciated.

Not at all difficult. I made it very clear on that page that these
birds all wore jesses: "All of these birds were wearing leather
restraining straps called jesses. In some instances the birdŒs stance
hid the jess; in other instances it was necessary to remove the jess in
Photoshop to give the bird a more natural appearance."

While the birds aren't exactly tame (take your finger off and eat it,
given half a chance) they are somewhat inured to humans. Every one of
them has a physical or emotional handicap that would prevent it from
surviving in the wild. The Golden Eagle, Aquila chrysaetos, for
example, had to have its right wing amputated after a brave hunter shot
it.
