    Hi Carol, great close up of the Red Tailed Hawk’s face. Your title is great too. Excellent work. My grandma used to call these Red Tailed Hawks—- Chicken Hawks and she shot them on sight and not with a camera as they got so many of her chickens. She hated them. My grandma was a real character. Great close up. Ed

  • Carol Barona replied

    I bet she was a character.I can just picture her running around outside shooting these out of the sky! Thanks so much Ed.
