“I photographed this Red-shouldered Hawk at the Sunoco station on the corner of Kingstowne Blvd. and S. Van Dorn Street in the Kingstowne section of Fairfax County, VA on December 18. He was trying to get into the Christmas spirit.”

Thanks to Rob for sending from 6th and C St, NW:

“Walked right up to him, and he didn’t move for almost a minute. Turns out he was stalking a small mouse, who darted out from under a car soon after, and the hawk hopped after him into the tree box. It was wild.”
