I was surprised when this Red-tail spotted me and didn't take off for the great blue yonder, but instead for another branch on the edge of the woods. While I was shooting I noticed him looking upwards at one point and he started flapping. I didn't even notice the action until I reviewed my photos and was completely astonished to find this hawk had come under attack by another Red-tail. Awesome action, but was dismayed to find the focus was not on target. Oh well...what are the chances of getting a do-over on this?
Rounding a bend on one of the trails at Reifel, I stumbled upon this beautiful young Red-tailed Hawk that was just sitting in the path. Concerned for its well being, someone summoned the sanctuary staff to come and look at him. We pondered whether to call O.W.L., the rehab centre for raptors when the hawk made a lunge for a tree. Wings and tail looked intact, but he did have a rather scruffy hair do. We figured he must have smacked into a tree branch going after a small bird. He was just a bit stunned and settled into a tree to rest. After about twenty minutes, he left, apparently none the worse for wear.
Another Red-Tailed Hawk in good morning light. Intermediate phase plumage? (Not so easy to really from this angle.., but I have that “vibe” given the reddish tint to facial feathers).
It occurs to me I don't actually know what kind of trees these are. Jonathan Pratt says "I believe the common tree species within the River “S” unit are as follows Black Cottonwood, Oregon Ash , and the Pacific Willow."
A nice encounter with this red-tailed hawk as it flew by at close range. Photo taken from my vehicle.
I've been sighting this same hawk for a year or so. Over the past month it's been molting, leaving it with a bright red tail where its immature striped one once was. I've grown extremely fond of this beauty... can't wait to see it again once it's fully done molting.
I don't often post an entire series but occasionally I get a set that I enjoy enough to do so. This Red Tailed Hawk and I had an hour of uninterrupted time as it posed, preened and cleaned itself. First in the park, and then on a fence of a yard that bordered the park. Finally taking off into a tree, where it sat for just a few seconds as if to say good-bye. Then flew up into the branches and out of sight. A most heart warming experience.
Stepped out to go to the car and there was this beauty sitting in a tree right out front of the house
I drove to College Station Texas today to surprise a friend for her birthday. I pulled off the highway probably five times when I saw a bird, but this was the only shot worth keeping. The kestrels are just too skittish. So frustrating!
