Real nice images Andre. It does seem a little strange, not being skittish/camera shy. While they're not found around here, any of the hawks are real shy. Can't get within 1/8 mile before they fly off.

I was shooting out of the sunroof on my car, so that may have helped...but i'd say around here there are usually at least a few hawks that don't seem to mind people all that much

Well captured Andre.

wonderful light and composition but really awesome to catch one posing close enough for these shots- well done

Great shots like the second pose best

thanks, yeah i noticed a few other local photographers with shots of the same guy on the same perch a few days later...so seems like he's used to modeling

Very nicely done Andre! I'm envious. The second image is my favorite.

Stunning .. as is the background in each.

That's some nice photo's.
