Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis)

Went down to the spot where I was photographing Cedar Waxwings yesterday and there were none there, but soon discovered why, there in the tree they had been flying from yesterday was this red-tailed hawk waiting to find a meal. No doubt why the waxwings had found another spot to hunt bugs.
