Nice view out my window from my desk today. This wonderful hawk landed on my deck and I was lucky enough to have my camera right next to me. It is so nice to be able to have this view instead of a view like the IT Crowd staff have in their basement IT office.
If you let me know what type of hawk you think this is that would be great – including links to an identification page would be appreciated too. Last time people helped identify a Sharp-shinned Hawk enjoying a meal. Enjoying nature in your back yard is a wonderful thing.

What you have there is a Red-Shouldered Hawk. http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/birding/red-shouldered-hawk/
I wouldn’t be able to guess which hawk it is, but it’s definitely a great picture. It makes your day when something like that happens, doesn’t it!
