Beautiful capture of what is a Swainson's Hawk Michael. Very nicely done, I might add.

Nice shot, Michael!
Mike Drew, a local photographer for the Sun used to (maybe still does, I have not bought paper recently) have a two page spread in the Calgary Sun about his adventures driving in his truck along the back roads of Southern Alberta. He says the same thing as you about using the truck as a hide. I always thought he had one of the best jobs ever!
