Dark Morph Ferruginous launch and flight sequence - 7 of 12
Here is one I hadn't seen since last winter. While Ferruginous Hawks are pretty common this time of year on Colorado's plains, the dark morph variety is somewhat rare. From a distance I spotted a dark object on a pole and stopping a good ways away and looking through binoculars I was happy to see one of these. I slowly approached and it gave me a number of nice poses before deciding it was time to find a more private location. Taken in Adams County, Colorado.
