Very nice! I got a shot of one in flight a couple of months ago, but it was utterly unusable. I just barely caught him in my peripheral vision, and had to run around to the side of the house to get a shot of him over an open field out back. There's also one that eludes my camera on the way to work pretty regularly. He perches atop a street lamp in the mornings, sometimes. I came very close to getting a great shot of him, but one of those big utility trucks drove past and scared him off, just as I was getting focused. I was livid about it all day.

Congrats on the shot!

My very first Red Tailed Hawk shots. They aren't the sharpest, and a
little blurry, but I was working quickly to get some shots before he
decided to fly off (and he flew off right after the second picture.
