This Red-tailed Hawk flew up on a fence post nearby with a grasshopper for his meal. After he was finished he just posed for me with this proud look. Hand held, 100-400 mm L lens at 400, IS activated with 1.4 teleconverter (for total of 560 mm), f8, 1/1250, ISO 1000.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
