red shouldered hawk. on a wire

at the car wash in Fort Myers, FL

...I like to think that this is one of the pair of red shouldered hawks
that fly around over my condo in the morning crying out love songs to one another...
the car wash is so close by..... could be...
My Stokes Field Guide to Birds: Eastern Region indicates that this may
be one of the "pale race" that inhabits southern Florida...

This is just awesome. Hawks are one of my favorite birds although they kind of gruesome when they catch and eat something. This is so sharp and detailed!

Beautiful shot Jypsee, they range many miles a day so this could be the same one.
