Agave - Red-tailed Hawk
16 inches high x 12 inches wide

“Time of day is important for finding raptors. We found this stunning bird getting his first sun of the day down in Arizona’s Sulphur Springs Valley on a cold winter morning. A few minutes earlier and the hawk might be sheltering in the trees. A few minutes later and he was warm enough to start searching for breakfast, leaving us to wonder: who knew the agave stalks were strong enough to hold this raptor?”
