Mom spotted this burd (sorry Tabbies) in the tree. Since she/he was posing so nicely, we offered him/her the opportunity to do a Selfie. After taking the Selfie, she/he went on their way.
he/she is a beautiful hawk. as for swooping down, as the predator, humans swoop on animals and birds and kill them for trophies and fun.. this hawk eats only what they need to survive. Of course if one gets my ducks, I will cry..
Memory doesn't serve too well, maybe Cooper's Hawk (remember a few in our backyard) ... nonetheless, beautiful capture. Just don't let Trout Towne Tabbies know you got a "burd" here ... Mackerull will be so upset.
That is a very large hawk. Good thing you girls are inside kitties. We get them in our yard sometimes as well. If you see him again, please thank him for hopping with us.

Hawks look so elegant......right before they SWOOP down on some innocent passerby!

Magnificent bird, and look at that Brilliant Blue Sky through the tree. You two did good to let the hawk take a selfie.

ReplyDeleteHe ( or she) took a fine selfie. XO
ReplyDeleteOOh nice photo girls. I am most impressed. Tell Mom that Luxe Lens has LUT's on cheap sometimes (like $13!!) Good company Mum uses them quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteIt’s a hunting bird, and very good looking.
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome dude he is!
