Watchful Hawk

 

At dusk this handsome hawk (possibly a Red-Shouldered Hawk?) was sitting in one of the trees at the edge of the grass below the house (apologies for blurry photo - he was at the far extent of the zoom).

 

We knew that he was there before we saw him as the smaller birds in the surrounding trees had set up a cacophony of alarm calls to try to scare him away.

His focus, though, was firmly on the ground below, watching for movement in the grass.
