Swainson's Hawk

One of the cool sights from Yellowstone was watching this Swainson's Hawk hover for what seemed a mini eternity in the air and then suddenly plunge down to the ground after its prey.

What an elegant flier this raptor was.


It was hard to capture this event unfolding, I was in the car and things moved rather quickly. Sometimes you do what you can do and get what you can get.
