This was a shot taken after a hawk catch and release took place. I was lucky enough to catch the shot right as the bird passed the sun. Taken at Hawk's Ridge, Duluth MN where 93,000 hawks pass over every year.
Welcome to the site, dpollitt! Great shot, and quite lucky, too (though I'm sure there would be another chance from that 93000 in there) :-p Keep up the good work!
