Bombay Hook NWR, Smyrna, Delaware

Harrier Hawks are extremely common at Bombay Hook NWR, but not easily photographed as they are constantly moving. This is one of the rare times that I came across two together, fighting over some miscellaneous prize. This is about 50% vertical crop of the original
horizontal image.

Nikon D2X, Nikon 500mm f/4 w/TC1.4 @ 700mm, 1/750 sec, f/8, ISO 200
