Sharp-shinned Hawk (Accipiter striatus)
About Me
- Pamela
- Washington (East of Cascades), United States
- I am a grandmother, a wife, a mother, a sister, and a friend. I know that a woman who will tell her age or her weight will tell anything. I won't tell mine, so you can trust me. I have a cat. I have a duster that I don't use. The photo header is one I have taken of Gram's antique writing desk. My dust.
What's this?

Nice photo of the birdie. I wonder what it's looking at.
How beautiful! Stunning composition. :D
Raptors are such magnificent birds. They are fascinating to watch, but I wouldn't want to trade diets.
Ooohhh....nice shot
What a beauty, and beautifully composed!
Lovely hawk! We have a few of those here in Niger as well, but they never stick around long enough for me to have an excuse not to dust, lol! Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment. Scrolling down your site, I found my way back to Esmé's blog again!
Do you have any connection with Africa, Pamela?
Greetings from Niger,
Esther
Gorgeous shot and composition!!!
Happy ww :)
Great shot Pam.
A short rest to travel a longer journey ahead :)
lovely photo! you take some good ones.
what a great shot!
happy WW!
Great photo...
Happy WW!!!
Great shot, so well composed. Happy WW.
That is fabulous! Either you were using a really long lens, or that's one very focused bird. Unusual to find one so close to the ground perched like that. Usually they're up where they can command a wider view. Lucky you!
That's a fantastic shot! Happy WWW! :)
That is a very beautiful & serene photo - also, I love your photo header. It's just beautiful.
Happy WW to you!
Wow! Lucky capture! None of them sit still for me. :)
Lovely!
Very nice picture!
I never saw such a bird ! It's beautiful !
But can you color with that Sharpie?
Nice shot of a beautiful bird. Pls visit my 1st WW!
Pamela that's beautiful! I am so impressed with what your point and shoot can do! I never had luck with birds until getting the SLR.
This is a great picture....It is probably hunting my chihuahua.....LOL!
"Here Kitty Kitty."
That is beautifully taken. That birdie sure did let you get close didn't it?
Happy WW!
Wow, beautiful picture! S/he looks very intent on something.
That's a cool picture, the Hawk looks so majestic...
Great shot!
And thanks a lot for stopping by at my WW :-)
Happy WW!
Great photo.
Now that's a neighborhood watch program.
wow, what a brill photo....love it..

OOHh what a neat picture!! i so love birdie pics!
Gorgeous picture!
Great photo. We have hawks here but I am not sure if we have that kind. We also have ravens out back and I worry about the chickens now and then, but so far no trouble.
That's a beautiful shot, Pamela. We have a Cooper's hawk that visits our neighborhood on occasion (and usually manages to nab a songbird or two). Hope I can get as clear a shot next time.
Gday Pamela.. Nice photo you have captured of the hawk sitting on the fence..
Wonderful!
Hugs and blessings,
Pam true what they say about the Hawk but what got my eye was the dust will wait Neat wish I knew more about how to do stuff like that
Great capture, Pamela. Did you get up close, or did you use a really great zoom?
Will you send that hawk over to your daughter's house to watch her neighbor's son? And maybe peck his eyes out?
Gorgeous photo! We get hawks here and they drive the Robins insane getting into their nests. It's a bit heartbreaking to sit on the deck and see one go after a nest with baby Robins in it. Nature sucks sometimes. But not when Hawks are sitting on fences like this. Hawks are gorgeous like this!
I recall a picture on someones blog very similar to this one. I love the photo. Very nice shot.
Aww, sweet birdie!
What a beauty!
I have never seen one of those before. Do you have Red Headed Woodpeckers? We have a tree that is almost dead because of them pecking at it so much.
Great picture!
It's a lovely bird with a tough and determined aura.
That is a GREAT photo
nice photo
