About the Image(s)

The Hawk was seen at Green Cay Wetlands this past week, though birds have been sparse this young Red Shouldered seemed to be very industrious trying to find food. Never saw him catch anything, which made me sad. He is really small, though clearly not a nestling. Hoping one of its parents is near, and feeding him once in a while. He is quite small and doesn't act like an adult, not active enough and always looks like he is waiting for someone to bring him food, searching the sky instead of the ground.

Post processed in Lightroom with denoise, selecting subject and sharpening/texture/clarity a very small amount. Lightened the lower portion of sky to add little contrast to an otherwise bland blue sky.
