Nor does this guy.
I wish the hawks would be as fearless. Can't get close enough to one to get a nice shot because as soon as they see me, they take off. I watched a Red-shouldered Hawk today who was busy chasing something on the ground. I couldn't see what it was after and I don't know if he caught it or not. He disappeared behind the neighbor's shed for a while so he may have been eating then.
He eventually landed in a tree and sat there for quite a while. Then, just 10 feet away from him, a little squirrel was scampering up and down the trunk of another tree. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. That squirrel must have a death wish. But the hawk never attacked...perhaps he had already eaten.
