spotted this guy sitting right next to the road, it didn't even bother him that I got out and snapped a few, he was so into looking for lunch!

Beautiful shot. I grew up with these guys, raised a few nest jumpers and abandoned chicks too, but where I live now, they are in short supply. I miss them. :)

Great shot -- the intensity on the hawk's face is terrific.
