 Photographed on the back side of Marsh Loop the morning we decided to pass on the sandhill blast off. This hawk really surprised us as it stayed in this spot for 20 minutes or longer as we approached, changed lenses and even moved around for different angles. As more people stopped and stepped out of their cars to take their own pictures, this guy just sat and watched all the cameras clicking away at it. I think it finally flew away out of shear boredom. We have had some discussion as to what type of hawk this is. I thought it was a red-tail (but then I think every hawk is a red-tail  ) but others felt it may be a merlin. If anyone knows for certain, or just wants to add their best guess, I'd like to hear your thoughts.Nikon D1X, Nikon 500mm f/4 w/TC1.4 & 2.0 stacked, 1/180 sec, f/11, ISO 320 |
