  1. Welcome on board to JD, Jeff! Looking forward to more of your photography! Posted 11 years ago
  2. A stunning action shot, Jeff! What a way to enter. I see you already figured out species identification and your first photo is on the homepage. Here's to more to come!

    By the way, your species identification led to a so-called "species intro", meaning its the first photo of this species. Such an action is the most heroic thing to do around here, it's like a national sport.

Harris's hawk is a medium-large bird of prey that breeds from the southwestern United States south to Chile, central Argentina, and Brazil. This bird is sometimes reported to be at large in Western Europe, especially Britain, but it is a popular species in falconry and these records almost invariably all refer to escapes from captivity.
