The honor of photographing such majestic birds.

I will be getting back to my Alaska photos very soon. I happened to run across some photos I took last summer of one, two, or three different hawks. It was such an honor. Most of the time they would perch on a telephone pole across the street or in the yard. But, on several occasions, he/she were within several feet of me. I was so surprised during those events; I almost didn't take a photo. I had one of the hawks swoop down within 20 feet of me and snatch a mole from the ground and keep on going. This was so exciting. I felt like a kid again; witnessing something for the very first time. It amazes me, how photography has helped me to see the world as a much prettier place than I had seen several years ago.

Stop, look, and listen. You will be amazed at what you see and hear. I hope you enjoy all of my hawk photos and will share them with your friends. I do believe all of the hawks are red tail hawks. But, if for some reason, you think I am wrong, please let me know. I do not want to lead anyone down the wrong path in bird identification.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you all are having a great day. Till the next time.........
