Hawk has a full crop (under the neck). So it has just eaten.

Bousard de la chatte

Le bousard est un rapace de la famille desAccipitridae, connu pour sa capacité à chasser et sa grande adaptabilité à différents habitats. #rapace #chasser #adaptabilite #Accipitridae #habitat

A juvenile red-tailed hawk perches on a fire escape. Red-brick building behind. I came out of the grocery store and saw this hawk across the street. My hands were full of grocery bags and it was too far away for my cell phone. "Don't go anywhere," I admonished the bird. Hurried back home, grabbed my camera. Remarkably, the hawk was still there.

An augur buzzard gives me a look-over. Taken in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area in Tanzania. The crater is an extinct volcano. Because the crater is relatively cut off from the nearby land, the density of wildlife inside almost guarantees sightings. The rim of the volcano is visible in the background. Augur buzzards are in the buteo family of hawks, so they are related to the common buzzard in Europe, and the red-tailed hawk and red-shouldered hawk in North America.

I love how every morning, if I look up at the huge oak behind our house, im likely to see a stunning Mississippi kite. We have three that live around here!
