Red-Tailed Hawk On Watch

Saw this chap on a walk around the neighborhood.

It was quite cold (notice his fluffy down coat) and he was content to watch us go by. In fact, it was so cold the crows were just flying by without doing their usual hawk harassment.

Taken with a Casio ZX-850 pocket camera: no fancy optics. Looks it, too… these are tight crops from much larger images. Click for bigger, but not wonderfully detailed, images.
