I finally got a shot of our resident Cooper\'s Hawk. I think this is a female, due to the size, but can\'t be sure. This image had no post processing, only cropping. Thru the window w the Sony H5.

This is a favorite \"as is\" shot, and why I like continuous mode. It allows me to capture a lot of \'action\'. Canon S3.

Every time I would take a step toward these Muscovy ducklings they would fall on the ground and lay there until I stopped moving. When I would move they would stop, I stopped, they moved. I guess they thought I couldn\'t see them if they were still.
