Oooh - first post in this section... hope I read the rules correctly ;-)

Attended a Photography Day at the Liberty Owl, Raptor and Reptile Centre in Ringwood today. Had a great time in the sun trying out my new 70-300 on my gripped D90.

Very nice, and properly sharpened for the image size.

And you read the rules better than many people here smile

I think it's a Lanner Falcon, not a Peregrine...

Cracking shots - Is this Ringwood in Kent ? Last time I went there (when it was just a bird sanctuary) I wasn't impressed and haven't been back for about 15 years.

The only falcon there is a kestral, the other bird (that isn't a bald eagle or an owl) looks like Common Buzzard to me. I might be wrong!
