Harrier vs Red Tail Hawk Dec 14, 2009


Oh the last day of my holidays. I was on my way to my daughters when I saw a red tail hawk. Pulled over (I was on a back road) and decided to watch. He flew from the tree to a berm and a harrier comes flying behind him. I tried to get some shots but really they were too far away and I did not have the right settings. It was fascinating watching them. This is the time I wish I had a 500 F4 but honestly watching was just as good. The red tail landed on a post and the harrier kept attacking him. He just sat there and finally flew back in the same tree he started in.

The photos are very poor but hopefully you will capture what I saw.
