“I’ve been smiling for ten minutes–are we done shooting yet?”

Lots of folks have been getting some close shots of this young Red-tailed Hawk at the Ridgefield NWR over the last week or so.  I took this shot Dec. 2, 2014, when the bird was perched on a refuge sign.  As I reviewed my shots of this bird on my computer, I noticed it provided many different facial expressions.  This one was my favorite.
