Went out this morning to photograph the smaller birds and all of a sudden the Red-tail Hawk showed up and I had to scramble from under neath the tree to capture this low flier.

    Great shots, thanks for sharing these images. We don't get them here so it's nice to be able to see them through your images.

    Thanks Allann, to bad that you don't get them in your area, they are sure nice to see live in the field and thanks for your comments on these.

    Dennis, I don't see these birds either, so thanks for posting. I like #2 if I had to choose a favorite. Great photos!

    Thanks Ric, and I agree with you on that, this is a big park and there is lots for it to get, and tons of pigeons in the area as well, I see them chase after them all the time from home.
