At a small bird of prey rescue centre in Lancashire (UK), can't remember what it's called. You can get as close as you like to the birds but they're essentially wild and tend to like the taste of lenses :)

Nothing to do with L lenses here. This is shot with an old Voigtlander 70-300 plastic zoom.

Patience, birds of prey can be quite nice to people when they're not hungry. Well, nice as in they don't try to kill you until you get within 6 feet of them.
