Field Notes
Description:
Juvenile red tailed hawk it still has some of its last meal on its beak
This young hawk was not scared of me at all I saw him standing on the ground with his talons full of leaves after a failed attempt at catching a squirrel I thought he was hurt or something was wrong with him because of how close he let me get to him but he finally flew about 100 yards and landed about 7 feet up in a tree and again he let me get with in 2 feet from him so I took a bunch of photos of him before I left him to his hunting
