DSC_0996_Portrait of a Swainson's hawk_1

            This hawk was just hanging out on one of the concrete pillars of the Causeway, and let me get a lot closer than raptors (or most other birds) usually do.  I was beginning to get concerned that (s)he was injured, and then I accidentally set off the flash, and (s)he flew off.  I felt better.  Sort of.  I did feel a little guilty about flashing him/her.
