There has been hardly any new excitiment in my backyard this early spring but I'm patiently waiting for signs of new nests. I did see a couple of House Finches 'checking out' and staking their claim on the existing nest under the saltellite dish a couple of weeks ago but haven't seen then there again. Since it was used successfully twice last year, (I'm guessing by the same couple), I figured they are back and will use it again.
About the Hawk. I was just sitting in my backyard when I heard an in-air scuffle between a Crow and this Hawk. As soon as the parted ways, this fella flew over my yard and I just happened to have my camera. He was way up there so not the clearest picture. You can, however see he is a Red-Tailed Hawk!
