Darn it @Roy1961. Where do you find all these hawks? I've been struggling all year trying to find a few to photograph. I can't get close enough even when I do find a few.

@Blacktop I am seeing lots of them at San Jacinto wildlife area in Cali, they are damn hard to get, don't know why as they guide rather slowly thru the fields. I got out of my car today and waited on them coming to me, this seems to be a better idea than driving around trying to shoot them thru the window.
