I saw this guy in a tree near my local Audubon Society today. I think he was attracted to the calls of the captive adult Red-tail that they have there.

I took about 200 shots of him. He stayed perched on the same branch for about 4 hours. Taken with Pro1 w/1.5 Tele-converter.

Thanks, she held her wings open like that for about two minutes, like she was heating them up in the sun.

Don't really like the angle, but not bad! I wish I could find a wild hawk.
