And a Hawk

As I was heading home from the park the first time, I saw this guy sitting in a tree.  So I stopped and parked nearby and walked over to him.

 I think this is a hawk but I'm not sure what kind of hawk.

 I'm kind of surprised that I could get closer to him.

 As I was approaching, he flew down to the ground and then went to a lower branch.

 I shifted around to get better pictures and he didn't to mind.

 Although he did keep an eye on me.

 I'm not sure what he was picking up off the ground.

 Occasionally, he would look back my way.

 Granted he could keep on eye on me.

 I did like this picture.

And one more.
