A Missed Opportunity

. Saturday, February 12, 2011 .
On the way in the front door I noticed a Cooper's hawk sitting on one of the lower branches in the ivy bed.  I hurried in to get the camera only to find I didn't have any battery.  So I quickly switched the battery and headed outside.  You guessed it...long gone.  I walked around the side of the house and heard a robin singing.  So robin will have to do for this shot.

I can hardly wait to see what everyone else comes up with.  The weather around the country is so varied today, this should be interesting.  Skip on over to Murrieta365 too see what has been posted by Jan and all of her blogging friends.

  1. Great shot, Jan. That happens to me all the time, not the battery, but the bird having flown, by the time I get my camera!
