Buteo jamaicensis
This hawk was quite focused on a rodent that it had tracked. Even though people passed by quite closely on a walking path, it did not let that disrupt its concentration and it eventually captured its prey.
Mason Farm Biological Reserve
The hawk's hunting technique is described in this blog: http://mybeautifulworldblog.com/2015/03/...
