    Finally! A wild one!

    For some reason, I just have not been able to capture a wild hawk (other than one or two soaring far far away). I either don't have a camera when I spot one, or I don't have a hawk when I have a camera. Typical Murphy's Law syndrome.

    Today, I was shooting two pairs of cardinals while standing tucked beside a pine tree. Then all four cardinals shot off. I figured a hiker had spooked them. Coming out from beside the tree, I spot a movement about 40' away.

    Anyway, I'm glad to have the hawk monkey off my back. It's like fishing for that one last fish - that's the one that takes the longest to catch

    Shooting spec's:
    Canon 30D
    300mm f/4L IS + 2x TC
    f/11
    1/500s
    ISO 400
