TIGHT DEPARTURE--- I have often been amazed to see small birds fly so easily between branches in trees. I find it more impressive seeing an adult bald eagle take flight from a nest near Bend, Oregon and fly through the web of Ponderosa Pine branches. #your_best_birds #allmightybirds #birdfreaks #anythingfeathered #feather_perfection #igbirdfreaks #ig_birdwatchers #birdextreme #udog_feathers #nuts_about_birds #kings_birds #bestbirdshots #ig_discover_birdslife #eye_spy_birds #bird_brilliance #planetbirds #igbirds #birdsofinstagram #audubonsociety #majestic_wildlife_ #naturesbestphotomagazine #pocket_birds #youroregon #backyardbend #jj_oregon #birdsofprey #birdphotography #birdsofinstagram #baldeagle #eagle
WINGS AND A WAVE--- The wavelike shape of the trailing edge of the wings on this adult female northern harrier hawk in the Klamath Wildlife Refuge near the Oregon and California border fascinated me. While this bird is known for its hovering techniques in search of prey, I wonder if the wave shape gives it a silent, stealthy advantage when hunting. #your_best_birds #allmightybirds #birdfreaks #anythingfeathered #feather_perfection #igbirdfreaks #ig_birdwatchers #birdextreme #udog_feathers #nuts_about_birds #kings_birds #bb_of_ig #bestbirdshots #ig_discover_birdslife #eye_spy_birds #bird_brilliance #bns_birds #planetbirds #igbirds #birdsofinstagram #audubonsociety #majestic_wildlife_ #naturesbestphotomagazine #pocket_birds #birdsofprey #hawk #backyardbend #jj_oregon #centraloregon_igers
