After an absence of 2 weeks my friend the Red Tailed Hawk was back at his usual post today and he obliged me by posing for his photographs. This is the only hawk that i have found since last October that will sit and let me get close the closest that i have been is 10 feet. Today he even dove on a mouse that was in the grass next to my van , but i didn`t get the photo of him landing on the mouse because my outside mirror blocked my shot .
