Just Hanging Around


The young Red-tailed Hawks are still playing around on the construction crane near my place when the workers are gone. It certainly gives them a good view of their surroundings.

Taking part in Saturday's Critters. Click HERE to see more creatures from around the world.

We have many Red Tail Hawks around here. I'm always delighted to see them soaring overhead. You took a fine photo of this bird, and I'm sure the bird also checked you out.

Beautiful bird. I'm sure they are a bit confused by all the construction.

Pigeons beware. Hawks love hanging out in the cities.
Pat there's nothing wrong with your spelling... Doug Henning is correct. :-)

I saw a hawk mixing it up with a mockingbird yesterday on a weathervane atop Colonial Williamsburg's courthouse. Quite entertaining! :-)

Awesome hawk! We saw today the western Marsh harrier (Circus aeruginosus)

Great picture. That young bird is going to be puzzled when it finally sees a real tree.

Hello. Great photo. Beautiful hawk.
Maybe that hawk would want to drive a construction crane ;)
