Several actually. Still attached to the bird, a red-shouldered hawk.

Just wondering, did you zoom in a lot to get this? Or were you actually able to get up close to it.; August 31, 2008 at 7:28 PM

Thank you, I'm glad you like it. The answer is both.

This is another shot form the Everglades, where the wildlife is somewhat habituated to humans. So I was able to get closer here then I would have been otherwise. But I still used a 400 mm zoom lens.; August 31, 2008 at 7:50 PM
