Red-tailed Hawk

This is a wild bird. I could not believe how close I could get. Even this close, he kept on hunting for rodents. Usually these fellows fly away as you get within a few hundred feet.

Beautiful capture!! Yeah once and a while you can get a patient subject like that but that's part of the challenge. Well done!!
