    Crappy Backlit Hawk Shots

    Saw this as I was leaving the wife's office after lunch. So I grabbed the D200 and fired off a few frames. I couldn't help the backlighting, and I didn't have time to change anything. Just grabbed the camera and got off four frames. I think it's a Redtail Hawk. I'm sure Paul or someone else can confirm or deny that.

    Thank you my friend!

    It's a crappy shot - photographically - but I knew you'd be able to ID it from these.
