Stephen > I have never understood why hawks and falcons let these little guys bother them.  This mockingbird was swooping in and hitting this Harris's Hawk, but the hawk paid it no attention.  I guess birds know which ones eat other birds and which ones don't.  :-)  Weaver Ranch, Raymondville, Texas, June 2009

Stephen > I actually took this image of a Harris's hawk as I walked around near the blind where I was photographing mainly crested caracaras.  I spied this harris's hawk, which is actually the mate of the one that was hanging around the blind, in some heavy scrub brush.  I took this photograph trying to find an unobstructed view.  Weaver Ranch, Raymondville, Texas, June 2009.
Stephen > A slight ruffle of feathers is all I got from this Harris's hawk as it stood vigil looking out over a pasture on the Weaver Ranch.  It did not move from this perch atop a honey mesquite tree for at least an hour.  Raymondville, Texas, June 2009
