A photogenic hawk
November 1st, 2012
This rather tame Red-Tailed Hawk has been seen frequently along Carling Ave., and attracted a lot of photographer attention. Even when several people are up close, he blithely ignores them while scanning the ground below for scurrying field mice. He haunted the same stretch of road last winter, as a juvenile, now, with his mature brick-red tail feathers grown in, he's even more fun to photograph.

Yes, that is a very photo-friendly bird. Also, a very wintry pic!

Gorgeous picture! I have never been out to photograph him, though I'm wondering if he's the one I've seen near the Shirley's Bay turnoff on more than one occasion.

That sounds like the one. He was barely a minute down the road from Carling&Rifle when I last saw him.
