I got close to a Red Shouldered Hawk

Sometimes, you get so close that you can't fit the whole bird in the frame. So it was today when I got close to this Red Shouldered Hawk. Most of these shots are full frame shots without cropping.

I gave up on nature solving that problem.... I got a live trap and transported 14 squirrels to another location. Now I only have two left for my wife to feed.
