Red-tailed Hawk and Northern Mockingbird: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, August 2025 \u2014 This big Red-tailed Hawk flew over the road ahead of me while I was on my trike, chased by a Mockingbird. By the time I got off the trike and my camera up the hawk had settled in a tall conifer. I could not see the Mockingbird with my naked eye but I knew it was in there somewhere too. I took some shots with the hawk off-center in hopes of catching the Mockingbird, and managed to get both in the shot. The Hawk was still obviously feeling harassed and did not sit for long. And the Mockingbird was still on its tail when it flew. Sony a6700. Tamron 50-400 at 600mm equivalent (and cropped). Program mode with my birds and wildlife modifications.
