THIS BEAUTIFUL PUERTO RICAN RED TAILED HAWK IS IN FOR A BIG SURPRISE FOR HE HAS NO CLUE I HAVE SNUCK UP BESIDE HIM, BEHIND SOME TALL GRASS,   I WITNESSED HIS DIVE FROM THE SKY INTO THE NEAR BY BUSHES BY THE BEACH,   SO WHAT DO I DO RUN!! RUN LIKE A MAD MAN TOWARDS THE AREA HE DOVE INTO FOR A KILL,   AS I APPROACHED I CAME TO A CRAWL BY SOME TALL GRASS ABOUT 3 FT. TALL, THIS HAS TO BE THE SPOT I REMEMBER SAYING TO MY SELF AS I GLANCED THRU THE GRASS  I COULD SEE HIM THERE WITH HIS BACK TO ME,   HE MUST HAVE BEEN NO FURTHER THEN  7, 8 FT AWAY FROM ME.   NOW IM REALLY SHAKING!  HE ALSO SEEMED TO HAVE JUST SWALLOWED SOMETHING A MOUSE? A LIZARD? SOMETHING!?!   SO NOW THE MOMENT OF TRUTH COMES AS I SLOWLY GET UP ON ONE KNEE AND TAKE AIM WITH MY CAMERA,   I WAITED PATIENTLY FOR ABOUT 15 SECONDS,  "MIND YOU IT ALMOST FELT A LIFE TIME"  BUT FINALLY HE STARTED TO TURN TOWARDS ME THAT'S WHEN I GOT THIS FIRST SHOT  "ABOVE"  I KNEW MY TIME WAS ALMOST UP AND I WAS ABOUT TO GET BUSTED BY BIG BIRD!  AND TRUST ME HE MUST HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 15 INCHES OR SO STANDING TALL!  "BUT I WASN'T AFRAID"  CLICK  "NEXT" ABOVE TO VIEW  THE MOMENT HE SPOTTED ME WHEN HE HERD THE CAMERAS CLICK,  "WHICH BY THE WAY"  WAS WHAT I HAD SET HIM UP FOR.
