Default Hawk.

This morning while Hunter and I were brushing spotted a hawk perching in a hemlock.He seemed to be looking at a squirrel walking ten feet under him.[IMG][/IMG]

Nice picture! We have a lot here and I can hear them in the woods but I never see one just sitting still so I can get a good look.

I saw a nice one like that last weekend... when I got the camera and walked to the window, my big goofy shape spooked him off. Beautiful animal.

It was a big deal to see one in the city!
