Early Sunday morning, while the others had breakfast at Nancy's Blue Basin B&
B at Reelfoot Lake, I snuck off and had an encounter with a stunning but 
injured Krider's, Red-tailed Hawk that sat for a few portraits. The bird had 
lost 
its hind talon on the right foot and that foot and leg were not fully 
functional. Hopefully it will survive?

These are the rewards you get occasionally for the time and effort put out in 
the field. To see up close and personal shots of this Krider's, try this site 
and let me know what you think:

Good Birding!!!
