I burned the BBQ chicken for this - a photo on Flickriver

            I had my chicken on the BBQ and I caught sight of this hawk in the backyard.  I grabbed my camera and was in for the biggest treat in a very long time.  I didn't care if I burned the freaking chicken and I didn't feel pain in my shoulder...I was in the zone.  :)

Wow!!!  This is by far the best bird at my waterfall yet!!!  

I finally had to go outside because there was so much smoke from the BBQ, it was obstructing my view of the hawk.  He was a beauty!
