Red-Shouldered Hawk in My Backyard


I want to thank my husband for this shot of a Red-Shouldered Hawk. Here's why.

As soon as he landed, I leaped off the couch and headed for my camera. I quickly swapped the small lens for the 300mm telephoto lens and was able to snap 3 dozen photos. Thanks for both my new Rebel XTI and the new lens, John.

After he tiptoed down the side of the fort roof, he swooped in on a frog, and flew him off to a nice tree-top "breakfast".

Here's the rest of the photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7920525@N07/page2/

Hawks are especially nice to have around if you have a gopher problem. Let's hope you don't, but if you do, keep that hawk happy!
