Red-Tailed Hawk building nest at Gary and Diane's


My friends Gary and Diane are blessed to have a pair of red-tailed hawks nesting by their house. The big elm in the backyard is a meeting place for adults hawk. The young eyas once they fledge come and sit on the same tree.
Last year they had 3 babies. Can't wait to see how many this year.
