Stare Down With a Red-tailed Hawk

February 06, 2016

Usually it is really hard to get close to a hawk. As long as you don't look at it you're ok, but take just a glance and off it flies. It is even harder to get one that will let you point a great big telephoto lens at it. Well for some reason this one just didn't care. The closer I got the more it dared me to get closer. Here is the result, a stare down with a raptor. Who won? Click to find out. I wish all birds were this cooperative.
