    Red Shouldered Hawk

    Today in Brevard County, we had clouds all day long. They did however provide some nice light for this Red Shouldered Hawk that was eating a softshelled turtle.

    Your pictures are fabulous!! (but I always hate anything that even remotely resembles gore -- yes, I have a weak stomach when it comes to that)

    Beautiful photos, Ira! Can you give us some tech info on them? I'd most like to know how far away you were and what lens you used.

    Beautiful Ira! I'm about to post a couple hawk shots myself but they are nowhere near as good as yours!
