Hawk
 

Well my neighbor called and told me there was a huge Red Tailed hawk in my backyard. As she knows im an avid birdwatcher. Ive been itching to use my early xmas present. Got a Sigma 18-250 lens for my Cannon rebel XTi. Only snaped a two pics then tired to get a little closer but it flew away. Im hoping it comes back and eats my dog

Nice, I tried to get some shots of a cardinal yesterday but he flew away. Theres a bald eagle around my house too. How do you like the lense??

damn i love seeing hawks, they are so bad ass! deff post up if you get more shots too.

i have had a decent amount of red tailed hawks flying in my back yard (4 wooded acres) theyre pretty cool, im just not really into birds that much lol

really havent had to much time to play with it. I looked at it for the last 6 months and my mom bought for me as a present. I pretty much bought it for Atco so i can use it at a car show and track shots without having to change lenses. So far I like it, Def an upgrade to the factory lens 17-55. Cant wait to get better shots and better weather for atco but here is a couple more i took.

nice shots dude

snow is boring when all you drive is a t/a thank god i can sit here and take pics haha but thanks

yeah i can't take this anymore. i can't just sit here in my house. i'm going nuts and now theres thunder and lightening along with a **** load of snow. i didn't think it could snow and have thunder

ugghh i was expecting Firehawk pics lol

birds? really?

well, I guess eveybodies got there own thing.

personally, I think I would shoot myself before I started waiting around to take pictures of birds, then again I don't have the extra time to take a sh** either so maybe bird watching could be relaxing.

I don't sit around waiting lol trust me I don't have time for that. But photography takes patience

I took a few pics today myself, I was waiting for some people to show up :lol:
