Artist's Description

I was sitting on this Turkey Vulture waiting to capture a typical Vulture launch from this tree stub when, KA-POW!… , a Red Shouldered Hawk swooped down and knocked this Vulture off his branch. I was stunned to see this same hawk do it again seconds later.
Nothing like good neighbors on the street I guess!

An amazing image. It seems that the small birds are always picking on the larger birds (bird hierarchy). I love the capture of the turkey vulture in flight. They aren’t much to look at, but in flight, they are stunning.

Such an odd yet dynamic composition!
