Awesome Shot!!!
Sure is a long legged thing. No offence here, he's just doing what hawks do.

Great shot. Background is fuzzy like a professional. What camera, really sharp focus, even in blowup.

I think they're getting a bit more numerous, which I see as good.

They're pretty slick zipping through back yards looking for meals.

Great shot!

Thanks SoreKnees. The camera is a Canon Rebel t2i. The lens is a 400mm Canon 5.6 lens. Depending on what lens opening f-stop,it will blur the background like that. A pair of these Hawks were hanging around the park that joins my property and they got pretty use to me and my camera and would let me get very close.

Thanks Bum Luck. You are correct on them being more numerous and they are really slick at how they zip around.
