Hawk, February 27, 2019

ABC Wednesday, Wild Bird Wednesday, and My Corner of the World
H is for Hawk - a North American bird of prey

Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, February 18, 2019

Red-shouldered Hawks, Buteo lineatus, live in the eastern half of the United States and extreme southeastern Canada. Their primary sources of food are small mammals, lizards, snakes, and amphibians. And occasionally they kill and eat other birds.

Have a great day!

    A splendid hawk. An adult bird has been spending the winter here this year.

    I always enjoy watching hawks including red shouldered hawks. They are so vigilant and when they are around all the the critters sit up and take notice.

    Hello Lea, coming from ABC Wednesday. Great capture for this bird!
    Last week I changed some things on my firefox browser, and discovered my comments can get through now, hurrah (even the chanpta thingie is still time consuming) - oh and another thing changed at All Seasons - have increased the time to link up from Sunday till Friday noon - as this seems to work for some better. Hope to see you back soon!

    Nice capture. Watching for hawks is a favorite thing we do when going anywhere. We saw two today, but no photo opportunity.

    such a pretty bird! I see them around here, but I don't know them well enough to identify them past 'hawk'.

    He's got lovely feathers. I wonder if the hawks in our area (California central coast) have similar feathers.
