I am not a bird photographer
Lens: Pentax FA 80-320 Camera: K10 Photo Location: Mitchell Co. Ga.

I've been seeing a couple of these Redtail Hawks flying by my property for a few days now. I was walking around behind my house today and this one comes floating by on the wind currents. It caught me off guard because I really wasn't looking for it, but I fired off a few shots. This was the best I could do.

Nice shot, great colours and I love how you can see the design on the wings. I'd be super happy if this was my capture.

I like that you captured the red of the tail, hard to catch in flight. Wonderful bird to watch, great hunters.
