Red tails often pass through here, but, strangely, always get run off by the 
pair of red-shouldered hawks, which are smaller, but more aggressive, who've 
nested in the back yard for five or six years. Yeah, tree wiggling can be a 
problem.

Sorry, but I don't what lens it was taken with. I'm not a record-keeper.
