Incredible intensity Valarie! What a magnificent capture :-) We'll see this one again! #8593047Marty Straub May 06, 2010
It's that intense eyebrow, which enhances his ability to see movement on the ground far below even in strong sunlight, that gives the hawk the well-deserved monikor. What gives THIS hawk intensity in your wonderful photo is your ability to capture such incredible detail surrounding that hawkeye. Gorgeous colors and huge impact, Valarie. #8593173Carrie M.
