Sorry Tom, I tried to give this a 10, it was the slip of a finger 9. My vote is a ten. This is just fantastic! Lucky you to get such an awesome shot.

But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think and smile.
Art is everywhere, except it has to pass through a creative mind.
What the heck, I missed this one obviously. I don't get out enough. This is a great shot Tom with excellent detail. Birds of prey are so much more interesting;-)
WOW!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for ID'ING this one! I feed the wild birds at my house and have been trying to figure out the name of the hawk that swoops in and eats my doves!!!!!!!!!! I looked in "Florida Birds of prey" and it never mentioned this one! I knew it was too big to be a Cooper's Hawk and too small to be a Kestrel...
I have tried to get photos but not even a blurred bad one! GREAT SHOT!!!!!! They are beautiful...even though I don't like them eating in my sanctuary...:)
