Red Shouldered Hawk perched outside my kitchen window

Not the best picture for sure. I didn't have a long enough zoom lens to start with, and then on top of that, I had to shoot through my kitchen window as to not scare it off! I feel very privileged to have a hawk perched on one of my planted trees.

When I planted the 15 trees in my tiny yard, my wife was constantly on my case about planting too many trees, and too close together, but now a days she is happy as we have wildlife that comes and visits us. A lot of the trees I planted I found as saplings in the flower garden and transplanted. This is one of the transplants!
