On lookout
A red tailed hawk peers out from behind some low-hanging foliage at the Air Armament Center headquarters building the morning of Oct. 11 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. Later, the hawk perched on the stair railing outside the front door of the building. Red tailed hawks are just one of many bird-of-prey species that populate the Eglin reservation. Female red tails can weigh more than four pounds and have up to a 52 inch wingspan. (U.S. Air Force photo/Samuel King Jr.)
