I found it an intersting scene, this Hawk surveying its hunting grounds on the very sign meant to protect those grounds. Thanks for looking and commenting.

Greg,

I think this image speaks volumes. Perhaps because of the conservation of the land the hawks will make a great comeback.

Very well done.

This is great! He looks like a policeman, siting there, ready to cite anyone not following the rules.

There is no back story needed. The image, aside from being well composed, nicely lit, well exposed, and compelling, is self explanatory.
