I was standing out in the backyard Friday afternoon, when I saw a falcon circling high in the sky. I just managed to capture its silhouette
when a larger bird entered the camera's field of view. A quick refocus and I was able to get this shot of a Red-Tailed Hawk carrying its prey.
These are magnificent birds. There are three that frequent our neighbourhood and I delight in seeing them soar in lazy circles higher and higher.

That's quite a photograph. The red-tailed hawk's wings are just beautiful. What timing.
Awesome photo! I wonder what he had for lunch?
Thank you for the pics. I see these guys, usually in summer.
What a great photo. Amazing. We also have the red tail hawks in the Atlanta area but I could never capture an inflight photo of one like you did.
On our recent trip south I couldn't help but notice lots of hawks around. That is a superb photo.
These are beautiful I had an osprey in my lens for nearly half an hour Saturday but only got a small dark blurs...:)
What a beautiful shot of their feathers, Pam!
Wow what a photo!
spectacular -- I know how hard it is to get these shots!
