I took this in the back yard on a very cold January day this year. As I was revisiting these shots I started to wonder what he was thinking while I was down below taking his picture. I think he was saying. I have super sharp vision. I can turn my head 180 degrees and see all around me. I have a sharp beak and sharp talons, and I can FLY. What can you do puny human? I am so jealous.
Much as I love our backyard in the warm seasons, full of flowers and foliage and songbirds, I know the raptors are there, but hidden. The winter garden leaves them little cover. Our redtailed and red-shouldered hawks are the stars when the garden is bare.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful picture. Amazing that you were able to get that shot!
