The Samsung S23 Ultra is really a wonder sometimes. I saw this hawk flying close to my house and was without a camera to capture it. But as I was walking I brought my phone. I then zoomed all the way and with some difficulty (it is not easy following a bird with a phone and screen, Although it kept flying away as I got near, the hawk settled down for a bit and I was finally able to capture it.

Nice shot of a Coopers Hawk. I'm still not a fan of phone cameras, but you have shown that they work pretty good sometimes!

Haha… since my usual phone shot of anything flying is, at best, a glimpse in a corner or a bird backend, I praise your patience. Hawks are abundant where I call home but they usually shy unless they have some other priority. Nice catch!
