No Siberian Tiger, but I was surprised to see this hawk. The set is in a pine grove and tough to see from the air. Got over 500 pictures of this very photogenic hawk. Had a hard time narrowing them down. I love the markings on these hawks with the snow background. The last three pictures are interesting, stuck its head in the snow and then back up and then of all the pictures, only one with its eyelid closed.
Great pics,it looks like he has claimed the carcass,he's a clean bird he even washes his face after eating.
