This Sharp Shinned Hawk blew in briefly, looked around as all the little birds paniced and flew off, then he departed too.

Glad you were on your toes as these guys are notorious for sneaking in and out unnoticed. Thanks Steve, I was lucky, just saw this slightly larger bird in the brush....these guys sure aren't very big! butterfly2937 wrote in post #16931213 Wow I am glad he left without a meal. I would hate to witness one of the birds I feed get attacked! He did land in the brush, but then jumped down to the ground, but all his potential prey had quickly departed the area. Thanks for commenting, Carol. Lester Wareham wrote in post #16931220 Beautiful captures Ian. Good you are fast on the trigger if it was a fleeting visit. Thanks very much Lester. These were through the kitchen window....I was just in to get a coffee ldn323 wrote in post #16931308 Beautiful shots, Ian. Thank you Linh.

Really nice series, Ian . . . well done! Thanks Tom, I enjoy seeing the odd hawk in the trees too. This was right outside my kitchen window.
