This Hawk was out calling to its mate this morning, I could hear the other hawk responding but couldn't see it. I've seen them around from time to time and hear them quite often, this the first time I've had the camera to hand in quite a while though.
Vivitar 300/5.6 @ f8 Sony NEX C3 1/1600 @ISO 1600
ETA: Since so many liked the Hawk pics I found one more salvageable image on my card and worked on it last night, I'm putting it first.
Thanks for all the positive comments and recs, I appreciate it.
