Description
This is a Red shoulder Hawk. that I capture at my house. The hawk was sitting on wire watching the field for prey. I was just waiting for it to take off so I could capture him flying.
Whether wheeling over a swamp forest or whistling plaintively from a riverine park, a Red-shouldered Hawk is typically a sign of tall woods and water. It�s one of our most distinctively marked common hawks, with barred reddish-peachy underparts and a strongly banded tail. In flight, translucent crescents near the wingtips help to identify the species at a distance. These forest hawks hunt prey ranging from mice to frogs and snakes.
