Red-Tailed Hawk ~ April 22 [8]

New London, Minnesota

I wish I could tell you I got this close to a wild hawk in nature. Instead this injured Red-Tailed Hawk was on display, courtesty of the Raptor Center, for Earth Day at the Prairie Woods Environmental Learning Center located outside New London. http://www.prairiewoodselc.org/

Nikon D70
1/640s f/5.6 at 400.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
