Default The Bird and the Bridge

Took another walk over the walkway over the hudson the other day and could not believe my eyes when I look over the edge and saw this falcon perched on the side of the bridge.

Great shots! Such a pretty bird! We have a lot of hawks around here and they just amaze me! Like the bridge shots too!
