was this at 200mm? If so, I've been about this close to one too. It landed on a tree top that was only a few feet taller than me and looked at me curiously before zooming off to do more circles in the sky.
I'm actually green with envy now. I'd love to get such a good photo of a magnificent predator like that. Only I'm always too late when I see a bird of pray just gaping and not clicking.
I am a bit weird I guess but to meet a lynx or a lone wolf close up would just make my day. A bear is where I draw the line. I'd rather not be close to one of them. Still I very much admire the predatorial beasts and spiders too.
Glad you stopped by at Photoblogista. I'm an avid amateur photographer, and I'm using this blog to post my photo memes.
In case you're wondering...I use a Nikon D40 with a Nikkor 18-200 mm lens, my iPhone 5 or iPad, and I use iphoto or Aperture to do minor editing. I always post the location and date of each shot under the photo. Please take a look and feel free to leave a comment. Just click on the photo to make it larger.

You are a great photographer, not easy to capture the flying bird. But you captured it so nicely, and it is so beautiful. Well done my friend..
Too close, huh? Doesn't look like it from my perspective - it looks like it was flying just close enough for you to get this outstanding photo.

An excellent bird's eye view... although viewed from below :)

Such a magnificent bird against the blue sky. Just beautiful!!

Beautiful foto..
Great capture, indeed. However, when these birds start circling you know that they're waiting for something to die.
Your recent posts are showing some of my favorite spots in Calfornia and Washhington.
Awesome shot!
