20111212 459 SERIES - Red-tailed Hawk.jpg

Ottawa

Two images of the Red-tailed Hawk.


Top image: The unsightly thick telephone cable on which the Hawk was perched is removed to make it appear that the Hawk has just landed on the bottom of the frame or is about to come out of the frame. (At least that's the way it appears to me.)


Original cropped and sharpened image with the telephone cable still in place.
