Seems like lately it's all I have been photographing.

Beautiful shots. You know I don't feel sorry for you? On the rare times I see one of these hawks, it immediately gets swarmed by a bunch of crows and they chase it away.

Yeah I hear you Tony, Usually it's Ravens that harass the Red-tails around here but I do miss my Kestrels, the Red-tails have taken over the territory apparenty.
These hawks are real rodent catchers, I usually see them with voles, mice, rats and sometimes the odd rabbit or squirrel so it was odd to see him catch a frog. Interestingly he did kill it but didn't eat it not sure why.
The one looking right at you with the frog in front I really like. I feel like the frog is in extreme danger and you may have saved a life with your camera getting the birds attention.
