Description
I was out walking today a few miles from my home, and I had decided to leave the camera at home this time, well of course I saw all sorts of blue jays, mocking birds, a stunning tree with a gorgeous sky behind it, well when this hawk swooped down into the tree next to me, I was really kicking myself for leaving the camera behind. I finished my walk got back into the car, and like any enthusiastic photographer, or should it be fanatical, you all know who you are, lol I put the car in park, ran upstairs grabbed my camera, ran back downstairs, grabbed a diet coke out of the fridge (it had been a long walk lol) and got back into my car, waved at my neighbor and I was back on my way, luckily the hawk had waited on me and I was able to get four shots before he flew off, so I hope you enjoy this one as much as I enjoyed watching him.
Thanks to you all for your comments to my photo below.. I appreciate your views and input.

i knew this would be an instant hit and personal fave of mine the moment you showed him to me! what can i say but 'stunning'... i love particularly how his camouflage is made apparent by the background - masterfully captured hon! xo

How lucky he was still there. And you certainly did justice to him with this stunning capture.

outstanding capture, happened to me, left the camera behind and on my way to the shops saw a buzzard that had just landed on a fence post, it left after 3 mins, I always ensure I have a camera with me now
