bird of prey


As I walked back from getting the mail today I heard lots of peeping going on in the trees. I stopped and looked up and there was this guy (female?) sitting on the branch, looking down at me. We looked at each other for awhile and then he/she flew off. Someone has suggested that this is a broad-winged hawk. I guess that is an ex-squirrel it's got. There were several younger birds that flew off when this one did. (I should have gotten a movie of this so the sounds could be heard too.)
