I’ve been watching for Rough-legged Hawks for several weeks now and though I have yet to see any, others have reported a few sightings\u00a0in my area.\u00a0 With a storm moving in tomorrow and much colder temperatures behind it there’s a good chance that more\u00a0migrating roughies will be\u00a0moving south in front of it.\u00a0 Yes, I have roughies on the mind…<\/p>\n

\u00a0I found this bird several years ago at Farmington Bay.\u00a0 It was one of those classic frosty mornings at the bay where everything was covered with the\u00a0thick hoar-frost that I tend to love in my settings.<\/p>\n

Six minutes later the bird moved to another nearby crystal-encased perch and posed for me in good light.\u00a0 Even though\u00a0our view of a\u00a0significant portion of the hawk is partially\u00a0obstructed I like the way it’s nestled down into the frosty branches.<\/p>\n

No, I’m not\u00a0happy about the twig poking out of the back of the birds neck and I considered cloning it out, but in the end\u00a0– didn’t.<\/p>\n

I think I’m going to be roughie hunting later this morning…<\/p>\n
