    Nice little bush you got there Jeff. Nothing like THE TREE but its not bad for the west coast. rolleyes1.gif

    Nice pics though. Looks like a broad-winged hawk to me.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Looks like a immature red tailed hawk to me. Hey if you have not been to the pond in a while you should stop by. Got a few pics of belted king fisher, osprey, cormorants, white pelicans, great egret, great blue heron and a few black crowned night herons. And the cormorants are starting to nest. Also saw about 20 big green mantis. Have fun shooting talk to you later john
