I filmed this today (December 8, 2011) shortly after exiting the dentist's office. What a beautiful animal!

Please give my video thumbs up for higher ratings! :D
 
It didn't seemed phased by you being there at all! I once found an injured Peregrine Falcon in my mates front yard sitting on an old log.
Poor thing didn't survive though. Raptors are awesome.

Actually, I could tell it was uncomfortable. Once I got close enough to take nice photos of it, it kept looking at me every other moment, and when I got a little TOO close, it even threatened me by jumping in place and flapping its wings rapidly. I think it was too hungry and preoccupied by its meal to bother moving away from me.

That sucks about the Peregrine Falcon; Raptors are indeed very cool!

Sweet though that bird never took its eyes off you they have like 320 degree line of sight, I've scene em kill a pheasant before, its crazy how fast they kill.
 
Great video! We're lucky enough to have healthy populations of several raptor species in Missouri. I got to see a bald eagle take a fish out of the icy Missouri River once, one of the coolest things I've ever seen!
 
Very cool. I been in my home for 5 years now. First time this past month I actually had a hawk in the back tree. He was looking for a dove to eat, as my neighbor told me that it had eaten three in his yard the past two weeks. I was surprised by how big the thing was up close in person. Nice little video.
