Here's Looking at you!
« on: December 01, 2011, 04:10:51 PM »
I just took this photo and got done editing it:



I took it this afternoon. I went out driving to see if I could get some duck, Swans or geese photos. Instead I found this little hawk eating on a Road killed raccoon. He was right on the side of a busy highway. I parked my truck and began to take photos of him. I managed to walk up to within 20 feet of him before he decided I had enough photos of him. This shot I took from a kneeling position, so I was right down on his level. :)
