juvenile red-tailed hawk

Not the best shot of him, but I just love his expression. For me, birding is all about the interaction. It's definitely nice when I get a good photo, but I'm now fine when I just have a good experience.

He's a beauty and I agree...it's all about the experience/interaction with the birds but you also got a really nice, close up shot of him!!
