Yesterday at Myakka River State Park I was driving along when this red-tailed hawk flew overhead. I recognized him right away and pulled over for a shot or two hundred.
Lucky for me he was an eager poser and just sat there gazing up at the sky , as if he were enjoying watching the clouds rolling by. I could swear his eyes were smiling.

I like them all except for #2, don't like them eyes!
 
Never look up with your mouth open.

Great detail and postional framing but a pity you've clipped the tail. Sloppy!! (awaits feeble excuses and aggressive put down😁😉).

Thanks, Warhorse. That's the nictitating membrane that protects their eyes. It isn't pretty but most find it interesting.

Thanks, mate. Sorry about the tail clipping but ummmm ...... what was it .... oh yeah, an alligator snuck up on me, clamped down on my ankle and I twitched. Ever have gator jerky? :biggrin-93:

No, send me some.
 
Another great set! #1 looks so regal. He knows he's being photo'd and is full of pride. In #2 he's showing what he'll look like during the zombie apocalypse.
 
great shots...
