Red-tailed hawk season it is:D. Saw a few members have posted some RTH, so i thought i should join the wagon.

I don't normally handhold Bigma and shoot wildlife. I like to use tripod but as i was packing up after a day shoot out, this RTH hovered over my head. The tripod was already in the car, so i just grabbed the camera and fired away.

C/C welcome
