Poppy Hawk
With poppies blooming all around me I had a number of great views to choose from. I selected this one tree across the hillside which was surrounded by poppies and these beautiful white flowers with some mustard flowers mixed in. Then something caught my eye. Just out of frame was this beautiful bird of prey. I held my breath, would he make it into frame? Seems it was my day. He circled a number of times. Above the tree, below the tree then straight up and overhead. When something like this happens you just can’t help but get a bit giddy.
