Learning to Fly (Red-Tail Hawk Fledglings)







I met the folks in the house behind which these guys are learning to fly. It seems they already know how to eat. The flying bird is the adult male I think, having delivered lunch.

Hey Shawn, I met the guy who built that tower it's called a nesting platform and is designed for red-tails and harris hawks. Just thought I'd let you know, he says thanks for the pic's as he hadn't seen the inhabitents of that box.
