Red Tailed Hawk

This us not a tame bird, but rather a young wild Red Tailed Hawk. As we arrived at the Christmas Store in Clearwater, Florida, we could not help but notice this bird perched on the railing, about 5 feet from the door. David, Sharon and Wenda slipped past him into the store and I stood in front of the door to get a picture. The bird then hopped closer, now within 3 feet of me, and I got this nice picture.
