Do you know what kind of hawk that is? The kind his prey should stay away from. Awesome pic. Yes that's a Coopers Hawk that keeps the dove and grackels off my birdfeeders! Yep, beautiful birds. One tried to get one of my little hens the other day.

Speaking of birds.....here's a young Runner Duck with my youngest daughter. She said "HEY DUCK! Be nice, or I will turn you into duck nuggets." That's my girl.

An angel holding a duck. You see everything on here. Thank you Sir. She is super excited about killing her first deer this season, mentions it almost every day. I love it. Life is good. My little buddy. She will stay up with me and help gut/clean animals until I make her go to bed. Everyone else is asleep, but she'll be right there with me trying to help. A night owl, like me. Piggie perching at Conn Brown Harbor, no quit in her. The other kids get tired of fishing and go throw rocks, not her. She probably caught 50 perch before I said load up.

This stud was locked down on a doe and was highly irritated at another buck that he had just ran off. Photo was on a small lf place near San Angelo.

I thought that might be a Cooper's hawk. There's a pair that nests in the tree across the street from me. I love to see them fly.

Some really great pictures in this thread. Some are almost unbelievable. Great work and keep them coming. Thanks for the wonders of the world.

At least it didn't slide up and go through the windshield. That was my biggest fear during about 1.5 seconds of a big bull suddenly appearing on the shoulder of the road...20 miles north of Sanderson in west Texas. By the grace of God, he thought better of stepping on the road and turned around. There was nothing I could have done. I didn't have to change my underwear, but it was touch and go for a while there.

We have had a pair it Harris hawks patrolling our bird feeders for a few years. This year they have been joined by a pair of Redtails and a pair of Mississippi kites….. We also have a couple owls that hang around….. This is in addition to the numerous birds, squirrels, and Spitfires pet coon and opossum…. Only have pics of her coon…

Haven’t found time to post on here lately. Can’t remember what I’ve posted before. I’m running out of good ones. I’ve got 1000s of game cam pics but dont really use this thread for that. This thread is great but gets a little slow sometimes. I really appreciate all the regular posters in here. I think as we get into season it will heat up. I know I will have fresh ones in season.
