I sometimes try birding so I go to the back yard with my camera and wait around for something to happen. After a few I notice something big heading toward me and see this huge bird. It seems to be a hawk but it was large so Im not sure what kinda hawk it could be. I only had a few seconds to grab a few frames as it flew over head then it was gone. Pretty cool as I did not expect something like that.

Yeah thanks for the ID I suspected it was too large to be a hawk.
