We need a few Hawks

[clewis010]

I'm not much of a bird photographer but this guy/gal made it easy for me. It's a Coopers Hawk and preys on other birds. We have bird feeders and a water trough that the birds like so the hawk obviously thought this would be an easy meal. He/she was more interested in the birds than the photographer which made it easy for me to get these shots:

Edit: I think I screwed up trying to embed these shots in my message. Still figuring this stuff out. But you can click on the attachment and I think it works. Sorry.

Thank You. Great grab. You and your D500 might be missing your calling. Bird photography. (-:
Unfortunately, Cooper Hawks have that reputation.
Thanks for sharing that. I appreciate it.
