X post from GD.


I thought this was a Red-tailed Hawk. Marta said nope. After looking it up, I'm not sure what kind of Hawk this is. I was lucky to even get this bad photo taken. Marta was cooking. My left hand is still in a therapy cast from my July 5th thumb reconstruction surgery..

Here he is,

OS



UPDATE: Apparently he is setting up shop to hunt in our back yard.

Look dead center of the photo.


That is him sitting in Fontenelle Forest looking into our back yard feeders : http://www.fontenelleforest.org/ that has a new raptor recovery unit: http://www.fontenelleforest.org/post/raptor-woodland-refuge-opens-on-july-16-copy
