Christmas Day, I managed to snap some photos of what I think is a sharp-shinned hawk. Originally, I planned to try to photograph some deer, but when I stepped out onto my folks' deck, a bird swooped out of the underbrush and onto an oak. It was a smallish bird, and at first I wasn't sure it was a raptor.
I took a few shots, then it glided over to a fence post, and it changed color from brown to blue. I'm not sure if this was from a different angel of view or if the feather were picking up the blue color of the sky (surprisingly relatively cloud-free). I almost thought I was looking at a bluejay.
