I'm guessing it's a redtailed hawk?

Yep!

I kinda figured but it seemed way too small to be a redtail.

Those are really nice shots, I like the second shot, nice color and composition.

How did you do that? The bird feathers, the drops of water ... they look as though you used a fast shutter but then the splashes had to happen over like a half second or more?

This was shot at 1/800th sec at f5.6, 300mm then cropped a lot for the distance.

Well, however that works out, it's a very cool shot Mino.

I would not have expected something 1/800 to be able to capture those splashes like that. Very cool. I'm going to try something similar and see what I get.
