Deja Vu.... hey it's Christmas, you know :D

Went out to Hornsby Bend to shoot today. Just planned to find some kinglets and sparrows, didn't plan to see any hawk but saw this immature Cooper's Hawk. The spot is almost the same as two days ago last year where i saw a Red-Shouldered Hawk for Christmas . Wow, I wonder what hawk i will see next next at the same spot around Christmas. LOL! Thank you, Santa.

excellent captures....it's amazing that you can even see the spider webbing behind the hawk.

Thanks for looking and commenting Paul, Dan, Dennis, Damian, Keith, seanm, Karen, Stephen, snappa, Zip, Justin. Glad you like them.
Karen, for some reason the link to flickr seems to be blocked by your computer. If you have access to a different computer, that would help narrow down the cause of the problem.

Thank you all for the wishes. Wish you have a wonderful Holiday season. As for the new wife, i'll definitely get her some personal photos 1000X better than these hawk shots.:p

He, he...I wouldn't mind getting a Christmas gift like this one. Fantastic shots Fee.

Great capture of a fine looking Hawk here Fee. Beautiful!!!
