Harris Hawk leaning forward and screaming, perched in the edge of a metal roof. His pose is defiant, and his mouth is wide open. There is warning in his eyes.

A Harris hawk, with his wings half raised, is perched on an outstretched gloved hand, ready to take flight. He's in hunting mode and eager to be off in pursuit of prey. The photo is high contrast with the background white and the bird a rich brown.

Thank you so much!

Black and white Harris hawk in profile. There is a reflection of the photographer in his eye. His head is held erect as he scans the landscape. If anything moves, he will see it.

Thank you!

Thank you! You're very kind. He was a great subject.

Formal portrait of my favorite Harris hawk. His eyes are clear, sharp, and intense as he turns his head slightly to his right. The aura is one of strength and power. Beauty is a beast.

#Birds #Hawks #Raptors #Photography #Wildlife #Nature A portrait of a stunning Harris hawk. His piercing eyes are locked on my companion, who stands unmoving to hold his attention while I snap as many pics as he'll allow. I'm in awe of his beauty and power. A majestic predator.
