Last month we came home after running some errands to find this guy sitting on our fence. I shot all these photographs while still in the car, but I was less than three feet away from him.
I saw him once before in our front yard, possibly hunting squirrels. It explained why all of the songbirds who hang out at our feeder haven't visited for a few days.
I'm pretty sure he's a broad-winged hawk. He's a little bigger than a peregrine falcon, and this is the time of year they migrate through our area.
Whatever he is, it was such a thrill to see him up close and be able to snap some pics.
