Cooper's Hawk
Accipiter cooperii
This young Cooper's Hawk startled me at first - I heard it before I saw it, and it was practically right above me. I didn't get many shots before it took off for a lunch of fricasied mourning dove, but I'm fairly happy with this one.

From Wikipedia
The Grumman E-2 Hawkeye is an American all-weather, aircraft carrier-capable tactical Airborne Early Warning (AEW) aircraft. This twin-turboprop airplane was designed and developed during the late 1950s and early 1960s by the Grumman Aircraft Company for the United States Navy as a replacement for the earlier E-1 Tracer, which was rapidly becoming obsolete. E-2 performance has been upgraded with the E-2B, and E-2C versions, where most of the changes were made to the radar and radio communications due to advances in electronic integrated circuits and other electronics. The fourth version of the Hawkeye is the E-2D, which first flew in 2007.
The E-2 also received the nickname "Super Fudd"[1] because it replaced the E-1 Tracer "Willy Fudd". In recent decades, the E-2 has been commonly referred to as the "Hummer" because of the distinctive sounds of its turboprop engines, quite unlike that of turbojet and turbofan jet engines. The E-2 and its sister, the C-2 Greyhound, are currently the only propeller airplanes that operate from aircraft carriers. In addition to U.S. Navy service, smaller numbers of E-2s have been sold to the armed forces of Egypt, France, Israel, Japan, Singapore and Taiwan.

My Kodak Brownie Hawkeye. Unfortunately it is broken (well, you can't really get film anyway) ... but i like the typography on the label.
The Portrait Hawkeye No.2 was apparently a very popular box camera in the 1930s , as we see by the numbers on sale on ebay and elsewhere today . It was produced by Kodak Ltd. , London , for use with roll film size 120 . I have 3 examples in my collection , what allows me to analyse the differences . On the inside of the wood front (in the film compartment , I noticed the (serial ?) numbers H577, H599 and H617 . It appears that the one on the left is the oldest model . I illustrate the observed differences in the interior in this picture . The main difference is the changing design of the metal and cardboard film bearing part in later models by addition of an extra metal plate in the film receiving compartment . This can be seen from the side as a protruding rim on the lower edge .

Picked up this old beauty for a few bucks but it had some issues, the lens was a mess and the shutter was broken. I was able to find another Hawkeye for a couple dollars which had a cracked housing.
Stripped them both down, rebuilt one and now I have a perfectly working Brownie with flash & instruction manuals.
Threw a little old school retro look on this image.
Just shot a roll of 120 film in this, just need to develop, should be fun.
My sweet uncle Doug surprised me with this beautiful little Brownie Hawkeye Flash on July 4th. The camera is in fine shape, the flash unit is without a scratch, and it came with 11 flash bulbs, but perhaps the best part is that buried in the box was an unused, unopened roll of Kodacolor-X film that expired in October of 1970. I'm running it through the camera now and hoping it's not completely fogged.
What a wonderful treat! Thanks, Doug!

Hawkeye (Jackie) sat down on the convention floor after Thorette and the Black Widower wouldn't stop tickling her tummy. She was laughing and pouting at the same time and it was freakin' adorkable!
BTW, I waited a good while before posting this pic. I had gotten Jackie's permission but wanted to give the pic some time between the con and uploading.
Tech stuff: used Topaz Adjust (reclaim highlight) filter at 20%.

After the quick Avengers photo meet-up, I asked "Hawkeye" if she would mind posing for a couple of fun shot a la "The Hawkeye Initiative" (an on-line meme where the hero Hawkeye is drawn in poses that showcase the sexism in female characters and their impossible poses - it's quite funny) and she was all for it. :-)
