denis, Jo-Anne and Crystal,
I am very happy you all like these photos.  This guys was a great find and I wasn't even looking for him.
I didn't even know he was there untill I went to get out of my vehicle.  I happend to be looking out the window as I was getting out of my car and there he was about 20 feet away :shock:
Needless to say, once I spotted him I made no more moves to get out of the car. Just put the window down, picked up the camera and began shooting through the open window.
I saw him take off and swoop down to the ground, so I waited and he came right back with the mouse.
He took it farther into the bush to enoy and seeing as I already had a few great pictures of him, I decided to leave him be and carry on with my walk/drive
Thanks again folks.  :D
Meghan
