Red-tailed Hawk Photo

This photo was taken on July 4th, 2004 in western Minnehaha County.  I was actually shooting something else when I heard the hawk screaming.  I looked over, and he was sitting in a tree with this Red-winged Blackbird really badgering it.  I put the camera on it, and about 5 seconds later the hawk took off.  I snapped about 5 frames before he was out of range, with this probably being the best.  Taken with Canon 300D, 400mm 5.6L lens.
