Red-shouldered Hawk
/Thought I would have time Saturday to get out to Dutch Gap so I had my camera with me. Christmas shopping derailed those plans but having the camera with me was a win. This guy was just sitting on the roof of a barn near our house so I had to stop and photograph it.
Not bad for not holding my cameras in months if I do say so myself. ID needed, looks like Cooper but possibly a Red-shoulder? Not 100% sure
New Backyard Visitor - Sharp-shinned Hawk
/We had a visitor yesterday. Guy and I were walking through the kitchen and all of a sudden I saw this Sharp-shinned hawk in the backyard. I made Guy freeze as I snuck into our dining room, got down very low, cracked open the only window we have in that room without a screen and was able to get some photos.
