Red-tailed Hawk-Buteo jamaicensis
This is probably the most common hawk in North America. If you've got sharp eyes you'll see several individuals on almost any long car ride, anywhere. Red-tailed Hawks soar above open fields, slowly turning circles on their broad, rounded wings. Other times you'll see them atop telephone poles, eyes fixed on the ground to catch the movements of a vole or a rabbit, or simply waiting out cold weather before climbing a thermal updraft into the sky. The Red-tailed Hawk has a thrilling, raspy scream that sounds exactly like a raptor should sound. At least, that's what Hollywood directors seem to think. Whenever a hawk or eagle appears onscreen, no matter what species, the shrill cry on the soundtrack is almost always a Red-tailed Hawk. 120

Total sweetness! 💕 I have a special love for birds of prey. I found a retailed hawk that had been hit by a car, I found a wildlife rehab lady that nursed her back to health and set her free. Yes! Totally Sweet, your image reminds me of that Thanks!
