Backyard Raptors:
It looks like Red-shouldered Hawks are nesting in our woods once again this year!
We also have more occasional Red-tailed Hawk visitors.
The Barred Owls are around. However, I am hearing them more than I am seeing them.
I am hoping that they will nest in our owl box once again this year, but I haven’t yet seen evidence that they are.
As we head into the weekend, I would like to share several images from February 25th & 28th in our backyard, featuring a Red-shouldered Hawk:
Five photos of the Red-shouldered Hawk; Red-tailed Hawk; Tufted Titmouse; Common Grackle; Red-winged Blackbird; and a Red-Bellied Woodpecker.
Enjoy!
Stay safe and have a great day!
