We were coming home from the store and noticed this guy in a tree near our front yard. It is a dreary day, but I ran in and got the camera and got a couple of shots before he flew away.

I like #2 best - the sharpness so emphasizes his fierceness.

Thank you, CAS1951! Yes, it was certainly a treat to have him/her visit our yard. We are across the street from a slew off of the Tennessee River, so he/she was probably hunting there.
