A or B?

It's a toss-up today between the osprey and the hawk. The birds were across the street from each other in very different environments. For the first, I had to squint way up at the top of the tree; I stood there with my neck crooked, zooming out as far as I could, struggling against the brightness. The hawk was much lower and closer, between the path and the ocean; here I had backlighting to deal with. This is a very public path, folks going by all day long. I'm always surprised to see these powerful wild creatures in the middle of such clamor.
