hawks

There are two types of hawks here in New Zealand and I confess that I have no idea how to tell them apart since they are so similar. So I just call them all 'hawk.'

I sneaked up on this lovely hawk through an opening in the hedge

 after we saw him fly into the paddock and Hubby instinctively stopped the car :)
The soft click of the camera made him/her fly away just seconds later.

This juvenile was having dinner in the rain.
