Find the bird!~




So I was at Mount Auburn Cemetery and was heading back to my car. Right as I got near there a red tail hawk flew by me at eye level and landed on top of a gravestone. I pulled my camera out, but couldn't get a picture quick enough. I saw where he/she flew off to so I followed it. A couple other guys were walking around with cameras looking for it so I helped them find it. We then noticed there was a 2nd hawk nearby. They kept flying to different trees before finally lighting on a branch together.

Nice pics...but do you typically go to cemetaries looking for birds, encounter other bird picture seeker people, team up and do CounterStrike-type team bird picture taking? You might want to rethink your hobbies...or at least the methodology involved.

it WAS like counterstrike!! I was watching the bird and walking along, all of a sudden someone shot me and I respawned all the way across the cemetery. I was like "OMGFAWPCAMPINGF4GG0T!!!



It's actually a garden cemetery. It's America's first arboretum in fact. So there's tons of people taking pics. There's many famous people buried there. I have pics of the graves of Josiah Quincy, Winslow Homer, and B.F. Skinner

it's a female yellow throat if I remember my i.d. of it correctly. I'll check my audio notes from that day

Tricky, but I found the bird in like ~15 seconds. If it wasn't near the middle of the screen might have took a little longer.
