Hoping the rain will subside yet still busy observing an open field looking for a morsel on a rainy day. A beautiful hawk waiting for the rain to end in Mendocino, CA.
Thanks, this was one intense hawk focused and hunting on such a rainy day. Not sure he got any mice as if I were a mouse I would not leave my burrow in that type of rain. Hope your week is off to a wonderful start.
Hi Karen, It was quite a wet day but there perseverance of this nightly hunter was evident. Focused on the open field waiting for mice I believe. Thanks for the feedback and taking time to leave us your thought as we really appreciate them.

Nice capture. Hawks and eagle always seem to me to have such a serious look about them.
