Our resident Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) is a creature of habit. Early mornings and late afternoons I often sight this beautiful raptor perched on the same branch in more or less exactly the same location within a stately Oak.
This is gorgeous, Carol! I captured the same kind of hawk a few months ago perched on top of our phone poll. Stunning bird! I refer to myself as a bird nerd... so I have *loved* looking through your blog. :) Your photos are amazing! So happy that your blog was shared through my 'it's a small world' blog hop today!!
I like the post processing here to show its colours.

ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have a resident Red-tailed Hawk. It must be a delight to watch out for him. He looks wonderful against your winter scene.
