From today....


We saw this guy on the way home today....


We were on the highway, but it is one less traveled and there was plenty of room to ease off the road and snap a couple shots.  He flew right after the last one.

I will be linking to I'd Rather B Birdin'...

Wonderful shots of this hawk.

Such a regal predator. Like a horse whisperer, are you "winged-creature" whisperer. Your subjects seem so cooperative for you.

Hi Rose,
Thank you for visiting my blog. Great picture of the hawk. Funny, that was my Dad’s nickname.....and now that I think about it, I don’t know why?

The part about easing off of the road made me think of the numerous times I have yelled STOP to my husband.....so I can take a
picture. You would think he would be use to it by now, but it still rattles his nerves!

I think that it is interesting how hawks like to sit on the top of telephone and electrical poles. They must have a great view! These are fabulous images with fine detail and color.

I finally found your post for I'd Rather B Birdin'. The link you provided was broken, so I searched and came up with this beauty!!! Wow, Rose...this is awesome. Great sighting. And, I will go back into the admin of the linking tool and correct your link.

Happy week ahead.

Great picture of the hawk, Rose. I have a hawk on my post today, and someone said it was called a Sparrow Hawk in their area. It was so strange, cause I saw him in the Starbuck's parking lot, and I usually just see them in nature. The hawk is such a grand bird.
