Hawk in backyard with a meal

[Lavarama]

Have a lot of hawks in my area. This guy landed on my deck and I was able to get a few shots on the fly. Very overcast that day.

I caught an RTH take a young red squirrel a few months back. We were 30 feet away when she began dressing it for lunch. The sounds of the bones breaking was more than my wife could handle. I just kept shooting every rare second using 150 frames. Your shots are awsome. The bird in action.
