WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW! Wonderful!
ReplyDeletefantastic shot - I love the colour contrast, and the texture of his feathers. I feel like I could just reach out and stroke him, although obviously that might not be the most intelligent thing to do. (but when did that ever stop me)
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what he is, but he's beautiful! And doesn't he look lovely against the red of the fruit!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteMagnificent!
ReplyDeleteMy CC
Outstanding picture. You really got in there on him.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great picture! Simply gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteJanie: What a neat photo, looks like a Coopers Hawk.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shot!! The Hawk is indeed manly.
ReplyDeleteMajestic!
ReplyDeleteMine is up now too
Beautiful bird, and beautiful photo. His yellow eye jumps right out at you.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot! Hawks are hard to capture. Did you get a zoom lens?
ReplyDeleteI agree, that looks like a juvenile Cooper's. That's an amazing shot! Beautiful detail.
ReplyDeleteAwesome shot.
ReplyDeleteMy entry this week : in HERE. I hope you have time to visit. Thanks
Wow, what an intense stare. Looks like a very small twig to hold on to. Excellent capture Janie.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I know the hawks have to eat I'm kind of glad it didn't get its sparrow.
I'm watching crowds of White-crowned and Chipping this morning.
Awesome photo of the Coopers hawk. Great sighting.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture of the hawk, Janie... He's up there looking for something BETTER than berries for lunch I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteWe got SNOW... Tomorrow's post!!!! ha
Hugs,
Betsy
Wow excellent shot. Good thing he didn't move when he sees you seems like he knew you are taking picture of him ^_^. Thank you for sharing Happy weekend!

nice shot! he let you get pretty close! definitely looks like a Coopers. love the photo background, too, very cool!
ReplyDeleteWow, such a clear shot and with plenty of crabapple berry in the background.
ReplyDeletewhat a fantastic picture!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your award and on the great picture you got of the hawk. You've done a wonderful job of capturing the majesty of that bird.
ReplyDeleteThat's a really great close-up, an excellent, clear shot.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what kind of hawk it is but it is a gorgeous bird.
Thanks for sharing!
Nice close picture. I can't get that close to hawks.
ReplyDeleteThat is the most gorgeous hawk I've even seen! Yes, thanks for sharing indeed!
ReplyDeletebrilliant capture!!
ReplyDeleteRaptors are really something, eh? He is just beautiful (but I have to admit I'm glad he didn't catch the sparrow). Congratulations on the Goddess Award--that was a fantastic post and well deserving of recognition!
ReplyDeleteReally an adorable picture! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice Sunday!
Excellent image. Yup, no doubt about it, it's a coops!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful capture :) I've never had much luck with catching a photo of a hawk... they always fly off!
ReplyDeleteYour shot of the hawk in incredible, Janie. His eyes are so piercing and I could reach right out and pluck those beautiful red berries.
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this lovely photo ... the piercing stare of the hawk, the lovely red berries and the clear blue sky behind the network of branches ;-)
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
I'm amazed (and envious) that you were able to get this close!
ReplyDeleteYour Hawk photo is wonderful, Janie - glad he was content with watching so you could snap this picture. I'm wondering if there will be snow in your photos this week? Snow falling today both in Denver and the Mts.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snap. He is full of concentration.
ReplyDeleteDang if I can tell all the marsh, meadow, and field hawks apart, but it sure is an amazing pic.
ReplyDeleteCheck out the NYSt Conservationist magazine pics of the peregrine going after a snowy owl http://www.dec.ny.gov/pubs/60015.html gotta love those Wild Kingdom moments.
Beautyful shot, extraordinary hawk
ReplyDeleteMagestic he is... Nice shot..

Fabulous photo of a very beautiful bird. Thanks Janie.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photograph of Cooper's Hawk.
ReplyDeleteI have one that hunts in my back yard. Lately a Sharp shinned Hawk has come in. He is smaller than Cooper's. Together the two of them keep the Dove and House Sparrow population in check.

Great shot! no comment...
