Red-tailed Hawk Encounter...

I went out in the field yesterday for short stint and walked right up on this Red-tailed Hawk without seeing him until I was almost walking by him.  He was camouflaged nicely against the Phragmites.  I slowly backed off and took some digiscoping shots when I was at a reasonable distance.  Looks like a squirrel was down for the count.

  2. Great photo--I wish he would come and get one of my gray squirrels around our bird feeders.
