Well...I got up late today cursing the fact that I wasted a perfect morning. When I got to the woods, an hour or so late, I hadn't taken 20 steps from the car when this guy caught my eye. So...yah just never know.

    Very nice image of a Cooper's Hawk. I like the perch and detail you captured.

    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!"
