Red Shouldered hawk - Big Cypress Swamp, Florida Everglades

I have always been a fan of Clyde Butcher and had the opportunity to visit
one of his favorite places, The Big Cypress Swamp. We went deep into the
swamp in the middle of the night. We waited for sunrise near a place called
the Sweet water Strand. On this beautiful morning I saw every kind of Bird and
more alligators than I have ever seen before in my whole life. I looked Up
and saw this gorgeous majestic Bird scoping out the scene in morning light.
