Sky Watch - The hawk and the crow

Last Saurday when I went out to shoot some images of the cat stalking the starlings (My World), I spotted a hawk in a tree nearby. A crow soon joined it. The hawk seemed to object and after some fluttering, the crow settled for a branch further away. After a few minutes they both flew off into the wild, windy blue yonder.

I think it's amazing the hawk tolerated the crow being in the same tree! I don't think hawks like to share. :)

That is pretty amazing! Have to agree with EG! Fantastic captures, Lew! I do love those blue, blue skies, too! Enjoy your weekend!

Fabulous, Lew. I remember the hawk and the crow from your previous post, so am thrilled to see them again. You did some fancy camera-work there, to get them coming and going. Super!
