Visitor 2

When I came to pickup my son from my mother-in-law, she told me that there is a big bird sitting on here fire-escape. I was wondering what could it be. As she described it (big, hooked nose) I sought that it might be and American Kestrel that I saw once last September. But when I opened the blinds on the window - what a surprise. I saw a beautiful bird, that looks like Red-tailed Hawk (aka chickenhawk).

It was very dark outside. Flash had bad effect reflecting from the window and it would also discomfort the bird, as it started to move away from the window.
I had to crank-up the ISO to 6400 and exposure to around 0.6sec to get a proper shot.
I wish I had a tripod to get some sharper images.

Enjoy the rest of photos.
