Hawk by Cyn from Flanders, NJ
I think this is a Sharpshined Hawk.
He has been hanging around my backyard now for a couple of weeks. My feeders have been so full of many different kinds of birds. I know he is waiting for breakfast. :)
My husband happened to be at the window & got this great shot of him.
Thanks,
Cyn

I think your "ring-necked ducks" are actually mallard ducks. Mallard ducks are common where I live. Ring-necked ducks are much smaller.
