Description
This red-tailed hawk was sitting very close to the trail I was walking in a local park one cold January morning. He blended in so well with the surrounding trees, I almost missed seeing him. He sat very still and let me get several snaps on my camera before taking flight and moving on.
The red-tailed hawk is probably the most common hawk in North America. If you’ve got sharp eyes you’ll see several individuals on almost any long car ride, anywhere. Red-tailed Hawks soar above open fields, slowly turning circles on their broad, rounded wings. Other times you’ll see them atop telephone poles, eyes fixed on the ground to catch the movements of a vole or a rabbit, or simply waiting out cold weather before climbing a thermal updraft into the sky.
