Red shouldered hawk up close! Birds of prey have always been very attractive and interesting wildlife to observe and photograph! Sadly our species has killed over 50% of our planets wildlife in the last 40 years...in my lifetime! I hope and pray that future generations will not allow this to continue to happen! Nature inspires me daily to do all i can to save this beautiful planets wildlife! Unfortunately by immersing myself in nature for a living, i have seen the destruction, damage and removal of far to much! Please help to end the needless slaughter of our beautiful planets wildlife! Be the change the world needs! @jim_abernethy #endonetimeuseplastics #stopneedlesskilling #bethechange #endtrophyhunting #saveplanetearth (at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures & Marine Life Art Gallery)
