Field Notes

Description:

I love this species! Me and my dad were down in Edmond for the Lake Arcadia eagle watch, when we found this guy while driving down a country road. These hawks are very tame most of the time (my dad was able to walk right under him and back before he flew off).

Habitat:

We found this wild hawk while driving down a country road surrounded by woods.
