This post is dedicated to the Iowa Hawkeye football team (12-0), playing Michigan State on Saturday for the Big 10 Championship. GO HAWKS!
Last August, I spied this red-tailed hawk on a telephone line as I drove down the street. He obliged by allowing me to take a few photos from my car before flying to a nearby tree. I was able to walk within about 30 feet, the hawk keeping his eye on me!
We continued our stare down for a while, but….
…he finally blinked!

Thank you, Rene. My “have to get” capture is a “prey in the talons” shot, but felt blessed to have gotten these.

Thanks…I was so excited to have so much time to take pictures of this beautiful bird. Living on the edge of our community, it was not frightened by cars or pedestrians.
