This is the one that I think is Papa Red-shouldered Hawk, He's darker and has a brownish chin. Here he is enjoying a nice lizard snack. :-) He's much more tolerant of the camera than his wife. He never flew away, just keep eating and watching the lizards run around. I left him when I saw Mama, she doesn't stick around for long so I had to try for her pic too.

I'm with Tommy, the first is my favorite. Was that a lizard he was eating?

Don't you hate it when you get lizard tail stuck in your beak?
