Bird of Prey

.... or should I say "Bird of Hay". This guy was patiently waiting for the rabbits, field mice, and other tasty morsels that no longer had the tall grass as a place to hide. Sitting on a bale at the back of the field, he was at the far reach of my lens so it took some drastic cropping to bring him in. As a result the quality suffers but I was so tickled at seeing him, he was my obvious choice for today's blip. Tomorrow I'll go to the park and take pretty pictures of the flowers.

.... and the adventure continues.
