Hawk in Front Yard
So Monday morning I opened my front door to go out and get the paper and there was a flurry of wings on the ground by my porch. A juvenile red tailed hawk was under the bird feeder. I ducked back in the house and grabbed my camera which just happened to be on a table right by the door. I spent the next fifteen minutes taking pictures of the hawk through my living room window. It flew from the ground to a metal fence by the driveway and sat there a while. Then it flew over to a shepherd's hook which had a bird bath hanging from it and sat there for a while. Then it flew to the ground and sat next to the entrance to the chipmunks' tunnel for a while. Then it flew across the street and sat in a tall tree for a while. The whole time I was clicking away through the glass 7 feet away. What an exciting morning! I tried to post one of the shots-first time trying to post a photo. By the way, this bird was bigger than my cat!
