This juvenile Cooper's Hawk leaves its perch to try his luck with a nearby squirrel.

Canon 5D Mark III with the 500L f4 lens handheld @ 1/640, f/4, ISO 400, +2 exposure compensation.

The overall lighting was terrible because of the high trees blocking the light.

Cropped to fit an 8 x 16 format. Some blurring of the background to soften the edges of the bright circles.

Cheers,

Mike
