What A Difference A Camera Can Make – Canon 7D vs 7D Mark II
This is only a mediocre image at best and I’ll never use it for anything other than this post but I was impressed that I was able to get it at all.
Red-tailed Hawk – A “Rousing” Take-off
Red-tailed Hawk And Its Buddy In A Rustic Western Setting
Juvenile Red-tailed Hawk – In Flight And Perched
I’m surprised by how few Red-tailed Hawks I’ve been able to photograph lately but yesterday morning this juvenile gave me a few chances.
Dark Morph Red-tailed Hawk And An Annoying Magpie
I spent eleven interesting minutes with this striking red-tail as it hunted, fed and interacted with a persistent magpie.
Red-tailed Hawk Chicks Throw Up Pellets Too
Red-tailed Hawks On The Nest With Chicks
I don’t photograph raptors on the nest very often but for me this situation was a worthy exception.
Dark Morph Red-tailed Hawk In Flight

Red-tailed Hawk Leaving An Olive Tree
Whitewash
