TT w/Linky: I Spy With My Little Eye

One of the things I just love about this time of year, are the many hawks that seem to be out in full force right now.  I don't know whether hawks are more active in winter or not but on my ride to school every morning, they're lined up on the power lines, searching for their next catch or just keeping themselves warm.

In the past eight years that I've lived here, on the ranch, one day last week was the first time a Red Tail Hawk has come so close to the house, that I've noticed.  I was sitting in the office and glanced out to discover this guy staring at me through the office window.























Knowing I probably wouldn't have another opportunity to be in such close proximity to another hawk any time soon, I slowly got up from my own perch, the office chair, hoping I wouldn't startle him and snapped a few pics through the window.

On this Thankful Thursday, I'm grateful my feathered friend was curious enough to hang out with me for a good 15 minutes.....definitely the highlight of the day.
