BBQ is not the only food in my back yard. Here is a Coopers
Hawk that flew in hoping for an easy lunch! I saw it fly in and land on the
neighbors shed. I quickly put my telephoto lens on my camera. I opened the door
quietly and was expecting it to fly away before I could get a shot of it.
It was perched on my fence right next to my finch feeder. I
was able to get about 10 shots of it on the fence and one on the high wires
where it flew to. They are a pretty bird. I was shooting in burst mode; its
back was facing me, after the first shot it turned its head to the right to see
me then stood up and looked before flying up to the wires.
I used to see these hawks in my yard more often when I was
feeding all the birds and got some nice photos of them over the years. I haven’t
seen one for a while so was glad to get these photos of one.
