Sharp-shinned Hawk
Here are two more photos from last weekends’s shooting in the “front yard studio”. Our Sharp-shinned Hawk didn’t care about me standing on the porch at all and gave me 36 minutes to make new pictures while he was waiting for a chance to catch some prey. As already mentioned, the light was perfect that day. The biggest challenge was finding a spot with an unobstructed view. The bird moved several times between different trees at the edge of the woods. It finally tried to hunt down a woodpecker but had to leave hungry this time.
