It's one or the other - but either way, it's a lucky shot for me as he was sitting on my fence post about a meter from my door.

That's cool. I don't have any interesting animals around here. Maybe a few squirrels which are way fast.

Thanks guys - there are quite a few raptors in my area, but they don't usually land near houses - I was going to trim down my posts over the weekend, but I think I might leave a couple for these larger birds to perch on - hopefully they will keep the rabbits and other smaller critters away as well.
 
was it lunch time? great shot, and glad to see you back, raj.

Thanks Tim,

Strangely enough it was lunch time.

I saw lots of young rabbits out there on my run this morning and there are some larger raptors starting to come in as well.
