Thought I was a squirrel...
by Gary Robertshaw

I couldn't resist taking a few photos of this red-tailed hawk, he cruised overhead several times while I was out hiking, and the sun backlighting made it obvious where the "red-tail" part of his name came from.

Great shot. Interesting you should mention "squirrel" in the title. This shot I got of what I think is an immature red-tail in July was looking down from top of a light pole at what I found out later to be a squirrel climbing up the pole !!!!!! He soon turned and went down again !!!!! http://www.pbase.com/w3axx/image/65804318
