Great shots man. What did it end up catching?
Edit: It looks like a squirrel, but I can't tell.

It was actually a mouse. 4 bites and it was gone.

I did have it on at first, but with these shots I had to take it off because I got so close (~20 feet).

At first, it was a little skittish. After an hour or so, it got used to me following it around watching it hunt. I tried to coax it to fly by getting really close, but it just sat there.

Wow just a 300? How much of a crop on these? You must have been pretty damn close. They look awesome... really nice shots.

Yeah Bryan, just the 300. I had to actually back away from the hawk to get a good comp on the bird at times. I was pleased with the results.
