Wow, what a beautiful hawk - here in the Northwest Pacific - they are easily spotted but they are still magnificent every time.

We had one in our backyard (also in the city) a few years back. That was when we had a bird feeder and I felt like I was luring the birds to a predator so we took it down. Haven't seen the hawk since.

Small dogs, and cats are easy prey for them. Beautiful bird. Nice picture, you are lucky to get one so close.

I live in a small condo community in the city. We get over-run with rabbits in the summer. About once or twice everyother year, a hawk will swoop in......and the bunnies leave. But, they do come back, and so does the hawk. Mother Nature at work! A neighbor got a picture like yours once.
