Urban Hawk Family

A family of hawks nested this year on the ledge of our office building in Dallas Tx. The nest is right next to an office window. So it was easy to get close and it was easy for them to know they had intruders nearby. I was told they were red tail hawks.

All the shots were through the tintrd glass at fairly acute angles to the glass. Some more than others are fairly sharp.

    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!"
