About This picture was taken on Sept 26-2005.
A female Red-tailed Hawk was hunting rats in an open field in Arrastradero.
According to my experience, these guys are excellent hunters. Almost every time that they see a prey, they just dive and capture them.
This one flew from a light post and landed perfectly. A few seconds later took off again with a rat hanging from her foot.
