A Romantic Encounter


I watched these Red-tailed Hawks atop a cell phone tower for about 15 minutes as they squawked at each other, flew around a bit, had a bite to eat, and then got friendly. We should be having young Hawks flying around the neighbourhood this spring!

    Their encounter sounds more like a human date. Let us hope you see some young hawks in the near future.

    The courting ritual worked in this case. I hope you can spot the young ones when they arrive.

    Not the most romantic place for a date, but obviously it had its charms.

    Lovely. I’ve been watching a pair of wood pigeons in the trees opposite my house. Proper little lovebirds.

    Been seeing a lot of that kind of activity around here too. As SWMBO reminds me, it's Spring.
