Nice, where were you hiking?

Hey Brandon, it was up at Quabbin Reservoir. I was so excited as it was a rather HUGE hawk in my opinion and we have been going up there a lot in hopes of capturing the Bald Eagles. When I saw it perched in the tree I was like AN EAGLE lol until we reviewed the photos and realized it was a hawk. We were really fortunate it just perched there and gave us time to capture it. It was during the Polar Vortex temps.
