Red-shouldered Hawk giving me the eye

I followed him from a powerline right of way to an apartment complex. He flew from the power line to a lamp post. I had taken several shots as I moved closer. When I was really close he cocked his head and looked right at me. Click!

Great shot. I think he was trying to read the name on the front of your camera.

Very nice shot, Snowbird! He looks like he'd like to take a nibble of you! :)
