Red-shouldered hawk (immature)
Buteo lineatus
26.3587, -80.0831
Field Notes
Description:
A fairly large hawk perched on a dead tree limb. The last photo shows a brave mockingbird who attacked it several times to get it out of her territory. The hawk ignored her - it could have gone much worse for the mockingbird.
Habitat:
On an abandoned golf course along an inland fresh water canal.
