Very nice capture Will and a beauty of a bird.
I should be so lucky to even see a hawk w/so few branches in the way - :)

Great shot Will. I tend to lean towards the darker side so don't mind the shortness of light. I'd much rather see then a little too dark then too light.

Thanks. I gave this guy the name "Little Buddy". He hangs out over a marshy type stream and has a pair of Bald Eagles as close neighbors.

Good example.
