Hawk on Fence

This beautiful bird rolled slowly with the clouds in the sky above our house; probably looking for dinner.  Unexpectedly, it swooped down and landed on the fence that borders our property.

I often mention how important it is to have a camera handy for just such occasions.  But, unfortunately, I'd forgotten my own advice and had to run into another room to pick up the first camera I saw which was a Canon S95 point and shoot.

The Canon is an excellent camera, but not good enough on this occasion which explains the poor quality of the picture.  But I hope you are able, nonetheless, to see the glory of this bird, this predator, this master of the sky.
