I went for a bike ride to a park where they relocated an historic house from town (Mountain View, CA). I walked around the house and looked up to see this utterly calm noble hawk (to be identified) up in the eaves just taking in his view. Maybe he'd already had dinner, because he was in no rush to leave his perch.

Red-tailed hawk juvenile - Buse à queue rousse juvénile

we went out for a drive and we saw at least 9 red tailed hawk on the highway 50 with no opportnity to photograph any except for this one that we called number 10 that we spotted at an exit with a side road. This is the first time that a red-tailed hawk was cooperative for at least one shot possibly because it is a juvenile

 

nous sommes allés faire un tour en voiture et nous avons vu au moins 9 buses à queue rousse sur l’autoroute 50, sans possibilité de les photographier, à l’exception de celui que nous avons appelé la numéro 10 qui se trouvait à la sortie de l autoroute avec une route secondaire. C'est la première fois qu’une buse à queue rousse coopère pour me laisser prendre au moins une photo peut-être parce que c est un juvénile

Yeah, so true, at long last spring has sprung here as well. And the best thing about all this is that I finally got my truck back from its heart rejuvenation project. Unfortunately, I was told in no uncertain terms to keep the revs down for the first 500 clicks. Way to take the pleasure out of the reunion.

In the interest of putting as many miles on the vehicle as possible to get this arduous break-in task accomplished, I decided to go to Hawrelak Park but although there were the obligatory geese and a few ducks, this did not pan out well at all, possibly a bit rusty (me, that is) but I did manage to find the shutter release) and I headed home after getting a great rest on my (yes, mine) park bench. I figured it’d be a good idea to charge all my batteries and retrieve the 70D from its winter storage since my mobility had returned and I saw way more trips in the near future. I head outside, 70D in-hand, to see what damage there is to be done and wow, the Red-tailed Hawk that has escaped me forever is doing some circles overhead. And it turns out there is a moon up above as well. Spring can’t possibly get any better than this … yeah well of course it can, as soon as that engine is broken in … And let me point out that this is another of my environmentally friendly shots that did not require automotive pollution. No, this is not a composite and therefore could benefit from some compositional improvements.

And thank you Dean for showing a period in time when it was perfectly acceptable to have that smoke and enjoy it at the expense of the wellbeing of so many other people. Love his voice, probably enhanced by all that smoke in his lungs.

PS: Had I just talked about spring? Well criminy, today it’s snowing. 03-Apr-17

 

I was shooting pictures of this young red-tailed hawk, hoping that it would give me a flight shot, but it seemed quite content perched where it was, occasionally preening. Just before I left it moved its wing, so I took some shots of that. It was only when viewing on the computer that I saw that I got a flight, after all, just not of the hawk! That bird sure is giving the wasp the eye!!!

This time, the hawk appears to be holding the upper hand, but that was just the flight paths; the crow was definitely the harasser here, too!

This Redtailed Hawk nailed this gray squirrel in my backyard. My wife accidentally spooked the hawk as she came around the corner of the house with the dog. The hawk took off and didn't return to retrieve the squirrel until the next day . After he picked it up he landed on this tree stump and then departed shortly thereafter.

taken on a cold winter's day even though it almost has a tropical feel...

Couple of weeks ago I took this shot of a Red-tailed Hawk sitting on top of a lamppost, planning his next move to get a healthy meal in the city.. hence my title for this capture - The Urban Planner ;) This beauty was once banded and you can see his silver bling on the left leg.

This big female sits out on a conspicuous perch while guarding her nest, inviting the attentions of feisty jays and crows.

This seems like a good way to end the current Raptors NOT On Fence Posts set - the Red-tailed Hawk being North America's most widespread buteo. I don't have a shot of the underparts of this bird, so I'm not sure if it's the Harlan's subspecies, but that red tail is diagnostic and it's good enough for me. So different from the very pale Krider's light morph that I see across this province.
