Description
This Red-tailed Hawk was hovering about 20-ft. above the ground while facing into the wind near the Point Loma Lighthouse. While doing so his wing configuration changed constantly to hold position. He kept looking at something on the ground, possibly prey, put he never went down.
This picture was taken 17 April 2009.

Great capture!
Great bird! Very nice capture.
guess the wind was too strong to go down or he saw it was paper moveing in the wind.
About this shot. The wind was strong enough to allow him to more or less stay stationary for a couple of minutes. He was looking at something before he drifted down the slope toward the sea!
maybe he was waiting for a human to fall on the rocks.excellent shot
