Description

This Red-tailed Hawk perched up on the fence post and just sat there for a long while, not seeming to mind to much that I was in the area, but was keeping a close eye on me. Hand held, 100-400 mm L lens at 400, IS activated with 1.4 teleconverter (for total of 560 mm), f8, 1/1000, ISO 1600.
