Finally after weeks of looking for a good shot of the red-tailed hawk, I saw one perched on a tree close enough to get decent pics :)

That is a nice Adult, lots of red/bronze in his feathers.

Excellant capture. But, you think if it was so nice to pose for you , it could have washed its face or beak.

Jo, this is great stuff! It's nice when a search works out. He sure picked a puny little branch to perch on didn't he? ;)

You should think about framing the 3rd image. It deserves it.
