Recently I semi-promised not to post any more Red-tailed Hawks for a while but when sex is involved promises are often broken. Today’s post is no exception.
I’ve been waiting for the new edition of this book for a very long time. The second edition has been out of print for years and even used copies have been very difficult to come by.
Last week in northern Utah a pair of Swainson’s Hawks mated right in front of me. I’ve seen it happen fairly often over the years but this time they were close, I had good light, an unobstructed view and my camera was ready. I couldn’t believe my good fortune.
Please do not pin my images on Pinterest, Tumblr or any other pinning site or social media or use them for anything else without my express permission (and that includes using them as models for paintings, drawings or tattoos etc.).
