This was such a cool encounter this morning at @tapirvalley.bsky.social I was moving slowly through the forest when I flushed this Black Hawk-Eagle from a low perch near the trail, and it moved to a clear area with a squirrel in its talons. What a treat to see this bird so close! #birds #nature - ThreadSky

Thanks, Stephen! It was a very cool encounter.

Not to detract from the magic but it does remind me a little of Toothless

Had to attempt a little study of this #HEAVYPAINT

Adding a replay of this one, note that the order can be odd; like I started with a blue background - and only later changed it to green - but this isn't shown.

Hi Dan. How can I get a print of this?

danliimatta.bsky.social•25 days ago

Hello Mike, and I've nothing setup for it; but I'll send you a png version without the compression tomorrow

And I'll look into prints ^^
