Young Swainson’s Hawk poses for pictures

I went for a quick photo drive after work Thursday and only found one photo worthy subject. It however was a very handsome juvenile Swainson’s Hawk. These young ones have some very cool coloring and just have an extraordinary look to them. It will be growing fast as it gets ready for its long migration to Argentina for the winter.
