Hawk Eye........
While hiding along the creek and pond waiting on my favorite Wood Ducks to float by i heard a loud disruption behind me up in the tree. Juvi Red Shouldered Hawk was watching me watching for Ducks! he was so close this is all i managed to get into the frame. I was in some strange lighting as you can see on the hawk.....

Re: Hawk Eye........
