Swede’s Photographs<p>Steel Feather, Still Sky</p><p>Charlie and I just got back from our Monday morning walk. Along the way, I spotted a bird off in the distance and snapped a photo—not knowing at the time what kind of bird it was. I’ve included the original image to show how far away it was. For reference, I was using a 560mm lens, which offers about 11× magnification.</p><p>Using digital tools, I cropped and zoomed in to get a clearer view. The second image gives a much better look at the bird itself—a Mississippi Kite (Ictinia mississippiensis), a striking and elegant bird of prey.</p><p>Check out breathtaking photos of magnificent birds of prey, visit my photo gallery here:</p><p><a href="https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">swede1952-photographs.pixels.c</span><span class="invisible">om</span></a></p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photo</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bird</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdwatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdwatching</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdphotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdphotography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BirdofPrey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirdofPrey</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/raptor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>raptor</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/MississippiKite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MississippiKite</span></a></p>

Swede’s Photographs<p>Guardian of Quiet Air</p><p>Here’s a mystery bird—Avis Mystica. I don’t recall taking this photo, but clearly, I did. It was probably something I noticed while Charlie and I were out wandering. I love the composition, though the detail isn’t quite what I’d hoped for. It appears to be some kind of raptor—possibly a Mississippi Kite (Ictinia mississippiensis). But let’s be honest—that’s what we called a WAG in the Army: a wild-ass guess.</p><p>Check out breathtaking photos of magnificent birds of prey, visit my photo gallery here:</p><p><a href="https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">swede1952-photographs.pixels.c</span><span class="invisible">om</span></a></p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photo</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bird</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdsofmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdsofmastodon</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdwatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdwatching</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdphotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdphotography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/raptor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>raptor</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BirdofPrey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirdofPrey</span></a></p>

Swede’s Photographs<p>Raptor’s Vigil</p><p>Charlie and I took a new route for this morning’s walk. My planned path was blocked, so we pivoted north instead of south. Near the turnaround point, I spotted two red-tailed hawks (Buteo jamaicensis), each perched in a different tree to the southeast. Unfortunately, getting closer wasn’t an option—some areas were fenced off, while others were thick with tall brush. Wearing shorts, I wasn’t about to wade through grass and foliage.</p><p>Check out breathtaking photos of magnificent birds of prey, visit my photo gallery here:</p><p><a href="https://swede1952-photographs.pixels.com" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">swede1952-photographs.pixels.c</span><span class="invisible">om</span></a></p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photo</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographer</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/photographylovers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photographylovers</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/bird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bird</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdwatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdwatching</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/birdphotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birdphotography</span></a>#hawk <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/RedTailedHawk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RedTailedHawk</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/raptor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>raptor</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BirdofPrey" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirdofPrey</span></a></p>
