Hawk Sighting

This handsome fella was watching me, while I was visiting the horses.

Can you tell the diff between an Eagle, and a Hawk? I can't. Though I think this is a hawk, because of how long he soars ~ back and forth ~ over the meadow. Preying on thos those pesky rodents that plague my garden. (Therefore I love him!) Eagles tend to sit still and then dive bomb those buggers.

We don't have much in the way of beautiful song birds in this rugged country. But, I think he is absolutely gorgeous. :)
