Looks like a small bird just off the ground in flight.

Fantastic shot! I've have seen this up close and personal twice over the years when one of these hawks has swooped down towards my yorkie. I have no doubt had I not been standing right next to my pup that it would have got him. Stay very close to your little pups outside, those hawks come out of no where.

I love the expression on the birds face. He's like, "What you looking at?"
