Red-tailed Hawk
Last Wednesday I was lucky to see this handsome red-tailed hawk sitting in a tree right above my head! Isn't he handsome? I took several photos before he'd had enough of me and flew away,
If you want to feel really old today, I have a bonus for YouTube video for you to watch about how today's kids react to "old" film cameras:

Take a deep breath and be prepared to smile or laugh!

Gorgeous photo! (I do love red tail hawks!)
ReplyDeleteGiggled at the video, I still have a camera just like that.
HI EG Great capture of the Hawk. I watched the video and I laughed at it. It is amazing how things have moved on and the young have on idea how pictures where taken in our day.

ReplyDeleteWonderful photo. Love the light and shadows on those feathers!
ReplyDeleteI laughed at the reactions for the old cameras.
Wonderful. Love seeing and reading about raptors.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great close up!
ReplyDeleteThe video was pretty funny. So many things that we used are now obsolete. It does make me feel old when I think about it.
What a gorgeous bird and, as always, your capture takes my breath away!! What a face and eyes he has!! Awesome! Now I'm off to watch the YouTube!! Thanks in advance for the giggles!! Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteHi Tina,
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great photo of the RTH.
We have a couple that visit our backwoods every day.
I love your photo. Thank you for sharing your joy with all of us.
Peace :)
This is a gorgeous closeup!! I love everything about it, even the shadows of the branches.
ReplyDeleteThe video was funny! I shared it on Facebook for the camera club members to view it. Gorgeous image of the Red-tailed Hawk.
ReplyDeleteI remember seeing a pic of your red tailed hawk when you put in on facebook EG, incredible images. It's so exciting when things fall into place like that.
ReplyDeletep.s. the video really did make me laugh,the kids trying to load up the film was hilarious :)
What a blessing to get this shot, Tina! Well done!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful close up of that gorgeous bird!
ReplyDeleteWonderful shot.
ReplyDeleteA very nice portrait of this handsome hawk.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! You are so lucky to see them and to be so good at photographing them!
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah, would love to get a shot of a hawk like that. Looks like one I might see stuffed in a museum instead of live on a tree.
ReplyDeleteHe sure is handsome, and what a wonderful portrait this is!
ReplyDeleteFabulous shot of this handsome bird. I saw a lot of hawks while traveling today, all sitting on telephone wires along the road.
ReplyDeleteLove the way you caught his eye!
