Description
This young hawk let me get SO close to him. He was perched on a post on the shore of Lake Tahoe.

Oh, WOW!!! Now THAT is an impressive shot! Really fantastic!
Oh that is a simply beautiful capture of one of my favorite birds!
Beautiful capture of this hawk glad he let you get this close..well done!
Outstanding! Super sharp. I hope it wasn't injured.
SUPERB shot, beachzz!!
How marvellous, Marilyn! SUPERB.
This is a Wow! Great detail. He probably was still a little unsure of flight and thought you looked trustworthy:)
Oh my!!! This is fantastic!!! Well done!
Lovely shot!
Awesome! Excellent capture!
WOW - excellent portrait of this beauty Marilyn!!! How lucky were you??? Wonderful detail! :)
Outstanding! The young ones usually are fearless, so it is difficult for them to survive without mama around. Hope you didn't cross her. ;c) But what a great opportunity. I miss Lake Tahoe. Haven't been there since last summer.
wow my friend, this is crazy good
Egad, Marilyn, I suspect the cute little juvenile hasn't learned as yet to be wary of humans bearing cameras. In any event, super stellar clarity, lighting effects and feather patterns and textures on display in this one!
Simply beautiful!
you were fortunate.they fly when I get within a 100 feet.excellent shot
WOW!!! This is outstanding Marilyn. Love the detail and the power of that beak in ZOOM mode. Dana
I remember this guy ... this is just outstanding!!
very sweet smiles warm hugs, Linda
What an amazing shot! Hawks are such handsome birds, but then raptors in general are amazingly intense in appearance! They fit their name, or their name fits them, and I suspect that they know it. Also, recently, the term "bird brain" has been redefined as biologists, behaviorists, or whoever they were, discovered that birds in general are a lot smarter than originally thought: their brains are wrinkly, which means that they're bigger than they get credit for being. Well...that's all moderately useless aside information. Back to my main point: I love this shot. It's incredibly intense, and I'd love to have met this avian critter up close myself! Superb work! WOW!
Good one... Interesting expression. Aloha
Tantastic capture and shot !
