Independent

I had my thinking cap on all day as to what I could photograph that might signify the celebrations of Independence Day south of our border!  Hmm ... its not the mighty Bald Eagle BUT this Swainson's Hawk just happened to pose for me this evening and in my opinion any of our birds of prey certainly evoke freedom, independence and strength!  Wishing all of my dear friends south of the border a very happy Fourth of July!  I hope you've had a great day celebrating with friends and family!
