[Maine-birds] Great Black Hawk flight pictures - Thursday afternoon

I got some flight shots of the Great Black Hawk from Lily Pond Ave in Biddeford, Maine this afternoon, at 1:45pm.  It then flew out to sea and wasn't seen again the rest of the day. We left at 7:15pm.  Thanks to Sabrina, from MA, who spotted the bird soaring right above us.
