Hawk

Todays pictures are again form the Desert Museum.  During the Free Flight show they had 3 Harris' Hawks preforming.  They would soar inches over the heads of the crowd and land on snags 4 or 5 feet from the crowd.  Harris' Hawks will cooperate with each other when hunting and they demonstrated that as part of the show.  I was WAY over gunned with my lens selection.  I had a 300 mm prime with a 1.4 extender.  On my Micro Four Thirds camera that had me at a 840mm equivalent when compared to a full frame camera.  I should have left the extender off and auto focus would have been quicker.  All of the birds were certainly close enough for the 300mm.
