Short-tailed Hawk Photos

A very rare species in the United States, the Short-tailed Hawk is only found in southern Florida, and total numbers in the U.S. may be less than 500.  Not a great photo of one, but I was very glad to see one, much less get a recognizable photo of one, on a recent trip to Florida.
