This is a cooper's hawk I took a picture of out my back window. He flew away just ask I clicked-this is the only picture I got!

I used iPhoto to correct the exposure, saturation, and shadows (just a little bit of adjustment needed).

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.
