Hello Feathered Friends Lovers,

Welcome again to #SMaP Show Me A Photo Contest!
What a week! I am overwhelmed by the number of entries and I guess @oks2crypto will have hard time to choose the winners. But this is for the next post on Monday. Now I am pleased to open the next round of the contest.

But first let me explained how I came to the idea of this theme.

Have you ever thought if you had to be a bird, what it would be? We had some conversations about with @kohsamui99 once and couple of days ago with @papilloncharity. It was interesting to hear what they think and how they see themselves as birds. I, on the other hand told them and still wish to be an eagle. I chose the Imperial Eagle, although I haven't seen it yet. It is Critically Endangered in my country. This particular majestic bird is what I always pictured when I heard eagle. Now I have the pleasure to see and photograph other eagles and I will use them for illustration. I am attracted by these beautiful birds soaring high in the sky. Oh, how I wish to have their sight.

So, here we come to the theme - show me a photo of:

THE BIRD YOU WANT TO BE

The photo must be your own, not taken from Internet. Give us some explanation why you choose that bird.

Booted eagle, our neighbour who appears every day hovering above. This image is from yesterday.

All other decent photos of booted eagle I have already used in my old posts. I have another picture of an eagle, who was so high that I could not get much details, could be the same or close relative of the booted eagle.

Now is your turn and i am curious to learn what bird you would lime to be.

I would like to thank our judge @oks2crypto, who is doing such a great job and help choosing among all entries the winners.
