Red-tailed Hawk

Buteo jamaicensis

Simcoe County, Ontario, Canada

Habitat:- Open country, woodlands, prairie groves, mountains, plains, roadsides.

We often see hawks patrolling the Blueberry fields near Buena Vista...

Dive-bomb!

Watched this Red-Tail like a hawk for about twenty minutes, getting ready for the inevitable take off shot. When the time came that he left the perch, I very nearly missed the shot. I got the lift off, but no flight shot. Oh my, they are fast!

I found a pair of red-tailed hawks beginning to nest already. You can read about this nesting adventure on my blog post

Caught this guy sitting in a tree overlooking a field. Gave me just enough time to get a few quick shots off before he bolted. Somehow only got half of him in the frame on take off, guess Im a little rusty.

We've become addicted to this webcam, a red-tailed hawk nest on the ledge of a building on the campus of University of Wisconsin-Madison.

When we first came across it, it was just red-tailed hawk mom (or dad — they take turns) sitting on eggs — not a lot of action. Now that there are babies, we can't turn it off. Mom and dad fly in with a steady stream of unidentifiable dead critters to feed them. It's fascinating to watch.

Daniel got to see the first chick hatch. We're now up to two chicks, and with still one egg unhatched.

The red-tail hawk fledglings from Swallows Park take to the skies and circle above me, showing off their flying abilities. You can read about this nesting adventure on my blog post

"It is a miracle if you can find true friends, and it is a miracle if you have enough food to eat, and it is a miracle if you get to spend your days and evenings doing whatever it is you like to do, and the holiday season---like all the other seasons---is a good time not only to tell stories of miracles, but to think about the miracles in your own life, and to be grateful for them". Lemony Snicket...The Lump of Coal :)

A good gust of wind had the tree swaying and the chick testing the breeze, but still clinging to home. Swallows Park. You can read about this nesting adventure on my blog post

Very strong wind today - and two red-tailed hawks were surfing the strong currents; sometimes almost stationary and at other times wildly thrown about. This image is uncropped.
