Red-shouldered hawk
We drove by, then had to back up. The hawk used the tree for cover and I used the car... but we both knew the other was there.
Wary but in a better spot for a shot
How nice of the hawk to pose for me!
I am linking yo World Bird Wednesday.

He certainly does look like he's posing for you. Love them both but especially the last shot!
He is a handsome bird with his long yellow legs. What a fabulous capture:-)
Excellent pictures of this fine hawk, EG. The guy has probably done some time as a model.
AMAZING!!! these are so cool.
such a handsome one. you are the hawk whisperer. :)
This is such a wonderful picture of this beauty. You are so lucky that he didn't fly away before you got these shots as is what usually happens to me.
Really well done!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.

Awesome captures!
I often see hawks here, but normally when I'm driving on the highway, and stopping would not be a good idea!
Your cooperation has been perfect. Fine images!
Thank you for your visit - you are right about my feelings :)
A lucky find and amazing shots!

That's a WOW shot! :)
Awesome!
Happy WBW!
I do believe he's posing for you! Such a sharp photo!
Excellent photos! It's great that you manage to get such sharp photos of birds. I think it always difficult to take photos of them.
Have a great week!

The last picture is perfect. He did pose well.

You really did a wonderful job with this hawk portrait! I'm impressed! It's a beautiful bird. I've never been able to get close enough to a hawk to get a good shot.
Oh what a beauty! Great shots indeed :)

Great shot, what a beauty!
Nice!
Such a majestic bird
Fantastic photo!
Nice job framing your hawk through the trees, Not easy!
Oh yeah, he's watching you! But honestly I think he wanted his picture taken ;>) -- they always hide behind branches for me!
Hawks are as amazing as they are efficient. Your photos are great.
Your hawk has finess, she knows you are there to take a photo of her.
Great picture - I don’t seem to have much luck with birds of prey.
Well done.

You got one on me. I never get to see these beautiful birds in my backyard but I do see the Coopers and Sharp-shinned hawks. And I am able to get some good shots of them. This is a mature bird, I see and a nice one.

Astonishing photographs. Wow!
A nice little game of hid-an-seek you both played and you both were successful in that: you got your shots and he got you to go away. Nice captures.
These photos are awesome!
Fantastic pictures!
These are wonderful shots, EG. I love seeing hawks and birds of prey.
Looks quite the predator, great captures!
What a mean beak!
God bless you!
