Sitting in the mud along the river Sunday evening and got to watch a Peregrine Falcon with it's prey, a Short Billed Dowitcher.

Great photo! Tell me so I can gauge my own efforts, is that a 100% crop or is it reduced?

Exactly a week ago, to the hour, I was having lunch outside at Le Caveau in Grand Pre in Nova Scotia, celebrating our golden wedding anniversary, when my wife spotted a bird overhead. I am not spoiling the coincidence by labelling it - I had never seen one before and identified it later.
