Red Shouldered Hawks and More

This pair of Red Shouldered Hawks are moving into the neighborhood.
They have been looking at an old nest in our big Oak Tree, I hope they choose it.
I missed the shot where the Crows were welcoming them. What a ruckus.
Then 2 shots one of the Crows and a Woodpecker watching the whole thing coming down.

Thank you Corky these shots were a lot of fun they required only a little PP for exposure.

Thank you Texan, she was so easy to shot at 80 yds. I was amazed at the Lens and Cameras performance together at that distance.

Thank you very much Sue. It gets pretty difficult shooting with the sun behind the subject but in this case it turned out well.
