Field Notes

Description:

A family of RSH has been nesting in my backyard this year and I'm pretty sure this is the last picture I got of one of the babies still hanging around the nest.

You can see it fledging out (and looking pretty ridiculous!) here:

Notes:

Spotted in a tall pine tree in my backyard.
