While my mom and husband were slaving away in the kitchen, cooking the Thanksgiving dinner, I was busy stalking a hawk(?) perched on the shed outside our house. I wanted a shot of it flying away, with its wings spread, but I only got talons loosening their grip. Good enough for me.

He/she looks like a hawk. It’s an interesting picture, capturing the beginning of flight. His eye is sharp, and he’s in motion. If his wings were outspread, his talons would probably be tucked up, and you wouldn’t even see them, so you got something special.
