| Red-Shouldered Hawk |
Early this afternoon I stepped out onto the deck to see what the snow melting winds blew in. Almost immediately a migrating Red-tailed Hawk flew overhead.
Followed quickly by my first of the year Turkey Vulture.
But the stars of the afternoon were three beautiful Red-shouldered Hawks. One was heard calling from the same direction I had heard them calling from spring through fall last year. Eventually it flew over the wooded lot next door. The trees prevented my from getting any shots of it. A while later as I was filling a feeder I heard two more Red-shoulders coming from the south and about to emerge from the trees to the south.
Besides all the raptor activity I added species #91 to the yardlist as a pair of House Finches landed almost too close for my 500mm lens to focus on them.
