Description I was able to photograph this red-tailed hawk as he/she flew back to their nest with food for the babies. They are one of the most impressive birds of prey, with their figures standing out very well in their typical perches along the sides of highways.

I saw the title and went OoO because I thought you meant you CREATED this with a mouse. XD It's a beautiful shot nonetheless.

I've been trying to find a picture with this angle for ages. A hawk follows me wherever I go, this kind of picture means everything to me. Thank You
