Beautiful Red-shouldered Hawk

Thank heavens for the super zoom lens in my P900! I couldn't have got this shot without it. The hawk was way up in a tall tree across the pond from me. I thought the camera and lens did great! I am always thrilled to get photos of hawks, eagles and the other birds of prey. Yet at times they are easier to get shots of than the little birds who are gone in a flash when you try to get close. Birds in the wild is a real challenge for photographers, but oh the joy when you get a good shot!

Nikon COOLPIX P900
1/640s f/6.5 at 428.4mm iso110 full exif
