This guy landed on my wall and as I was shooting him the clouds opened up and it started raining hard. He didn't seem to care. :dunno

    Awwww, poor thing, he looks miserable. Why didn't you towel him off? naughty.gif

    Nice shots! Looks like a sharp shinned, but there are a bunch of raptors that look like that. Is there a bird feeder around by any chance?

    No bird feeder that I'm aware of. When he flew in there was an explosion of doves and quail that decided to vacate the area. rolleyes1.gif

    If you look closely at his left talon it looks like a piece of his last meal is still hanging there.
