Not Pretty, But Real


This is one of those photographs that you only get when you are at the right place at the right time, have your camera equipment at hand, and are aware of your surroundings. I saw this hawk helicopter down with its talons extended to the concrete bed of the Los Angeles River (some river), but before I could take a shot, he was out of my line of site. I waited a while, and then I saw him fly to a nearby fence and sit for a moment. As he flew off, I took a series of photographs and caught this image.
