Red Shouldered Hawk

[MikeMcA²]

This guy hung out for 15-20 minutes hunting either worms or moles this morning. Beautiful bird. Dark and high ISO.

Nice ones Mike, these guys will take care of the small birds in your yard.

Odd that neither this Red Shouldered Hawk nor the previous visitor have shown any aggression toward the other birds or squirrels. Although this one was more interested and tracked some movements by wrens and the cardinals as he was hopping around the lawn near my deck where the small birds were eating.

Nice catch. I really like the first and last for the bird's positions. I'm sure it would rather let the moles do the worm eating for it.
