Came home from work around 6:30pm yesterday and saw a hawk in my front garden. . Ran inside, grabbed my Nikon D500 slammed my 200-500mm lens on it. Quickly looked at my settings and got this shot. Got lucky. You can't see it but he had caught a squirrel.

He looks like he's wearing sunglasses I never noticed the yellow on their beaks before

Oh, good, it can come to my yard and pick off all the squirrels so my dogs will stop barking at the squirrels.

Looks as if he's having a bad hair day.
