Red-shouldered Hawk

Lake Frederick, Virginia

After yesterday's wintery day, today seems a bit warmer (56° F); drove to the end of Grebe Drive, parked and hiked along the primitive trail to beyond Grebe Point.
On my hike back to my truck, heard, then spotted this hawk high in the top branches of an old oak tree.

Nice focus through the branches. I heard one yesterday, too.
