Was just gonna stay home and have a lazy Sunday when my aunt invited me down for coffee. as I was sitting on their porch I look and seen the hawk at first I didn't know what it was being so far away so I had to walk to where it was at the time I only had a cell phone camera, so I got a burry picture of it, and it took off like a half hour later it came back I went home got my good camera and got this better photo I call my siteings a blessing from the Lord...

Nice shot of the hawk. I remember this summer when doing survey work on the transmission in central Vermont seeing a lot of osprey nests where this hawk is perched. Then we had people move the nest to a nearby pole that was not in use so the osprey would be safe along with the transmission line.
