Hawk with its catch(somewhat graphic)

Hey, guys, I just found this forum, but i'v been into photography for quite a while. I took this picture one day when a friend came to me and told that a hawk caught a squirrel outside our apartment. It ended up in the trees where I got some good photos. Took these with my 28-105 f3.5-4.5 lens. C&C welcome.

Nice shots of nature at it's worst (for the poor squirrel anyway), you might get more feedback if you post this in the Bird forum. I just love hawks and owls, but I feel so bad for the poor victims.

Thanks. It's natures way, what can you do. Do you know anyway that I can transfer it to the Bird forum? I honestly skipped right past it when I was looking through the forums.

I think a mod will have to move it manually for you. At least you know it's there now for future posts!

Where do you guys go for these awesome shots....I have a MKII with a 70-200 lense and I can't wait to go and shoot some wild life..

Honestly this was a just a freak occurrence outside my apartment. I never usually see birds like this here, but I just got lucky I guess. That would be great if a mod could move it to the Birds section, and sorry for that!

Nice capture of what looks like a Red-Tailed Hawk.

Thats what I assumed it was. Thanks guys!

Good ones. Send him over here. The squirrels are taking over the neighborhood!

I'll move the thread. In future, just use the "Report Post"

Nice shot and you were fortunate to be close enough to get such a good shot @ 105mm. Be careful shooting birds because all of a sudden you will be buying 500mm lenses

Hahaha, yeah he was just sitting right up in the tree. I don't even think those are at 105mm, maybe more like 70mm. Thanks for moving it, and I will remember that next time! There is a Canon 100-300mm f4.5-5.6 that I want to add to my collection, and unfortunatly the 70-210 I have for the old AE-1 is an FD mount, so I can't do anythign with that lens on the XTi. We'll see about that, though.
