A Cooper’s hawk perched in an evergreen tree stares intently into the camera. Minutes before this photo it had nabbed a small bird out of the sky in a low, looping chase that spiraled across several yards on our block.

A brown and white Cooper’s hawk stares directly into the camera from its perch in an evergreen tree.
The same Cooper hawk in profile, it’s head facing toward the left of the frame. If someone were to zoom in on its curved beak, there is a bit of red blood from a very recent meal.

Seems just a couple of #hummingbird friendly #NativePlants was all it took to entice a pair into residency. I constantly forget how curious they are though- as I jump from them darting in front of my face. Yesterday, this #hawk (red-tailed?) came by and one checked it out too. Or perhaps was in protection mode? Luckily, no birds were harmed in the encounter. #BackyardWildlife #NorthernIllinois

A hawk, perhaps red-tailed, perches on a branch of a dead-looking tree. There are no leaves on the bare branches. Behind it, green and yellowing leaves from other tree fill out the tree canopies.

#Birds #BirdsOfMastodon #birbs #hawk #buteo

a red shouldered hawk looks back at the camera, hooked raptor beak in the air proudly and down at the camera as if to say "WTF are YOU looking at"

Almost missed this beauty as I was driving around a nearby municipal southeast Michigan airport.

A few minutes later, the Red-tailed Hawk with prey in its talons, took off in flight over one of the airport buildings.

An adult Cooper's hawk is perched in a cypress tree. They're looking toward and slightly above the camera. Their orange eyes match their red-barred neck, chest, and underparts.

I normally see plenty of red-tailed hawks soaring above the open fields around me or perched in treeline around my property, but my back field had its yearly cut yesterday and this birb decided to survey it from a very old clothesline post close to the house. #hawk

Finding a Cooper's Hawk is typically a matter of keeping your eyes peeled – they're common but stealthy, and smaller than other common hawks like the red-tailed, so your eye might skip over them in flight.

I was coming back to my car from a recent bird walk at a local park when this juvenile red shouldered hawk landed in the grass not too far from me to.

I observed it for a while and took photos trying to capture several different mannerisms

My original photo had too much light in the background, so I darkened it a bit in post processing to really highlight the membrane.

Hawk In A Close Fly By by Debra Martz I watched this Red-shouldered Hawk from the edge of the road, taking a few photos as it searched the ground for prey. It then turned and looked directly into my eyes momentarily, then flew by extremely close as it moved to the opposite side of the road...I got back in the truck, left it to its hunting, and continued to Goose Island State Park in southern Texas for some more bird watching.

I was slowly driving down Mid-Pines Road in Raleigh which is a popular birding spot when I noticed this red shouldered hawk perched on the fence post.

It was so still I almost thought it was a decoy lol. I pulled off to the side of the road and took several pictures. This was the best one, so I call it the perfect pose.

Thanks for the kind words about the photos. I was surprised at how close it let me get.

Here are a couple of others. Maybe you can tell from these if it is a red tail or brown #hawk?

You can see its belly and underneath its wings really well in one. And the top of its wings and tail feathers all spread out in the other.

a hawk of some kind... red tail or brown hawk on the ground about to take off. It is facing left and its wing is raised almost vertical so underneath is very visible as it prepares to take off.
a hawk of some kind... red tail or brown hawk just as it is leaving the ground with a squirrel in one foot that it had recently killed.

It's wings are completely spread out as well as its tail feathers.

Not sure but I think this is a brown hawk. It was really big.

A young hawk landed on our deck yesterday and spent many minutes looking around. In this biodiverse garden, the apex predator has many options for prey: rabbits, frogs, voles and birds.

It suddenly flew off out of view, so I ran to the back door to see where it went. It had caught something small and was eating it in a dead tree near the pond. A brave Carolina Wren was just offscreen chirping intensely trying to get the hawk to leave.

Video.

So an astonishing thing happened a few days ago.

This gorgeous hawk landed on the fence right outside my window. My jaw absolutely dropped. I slowly pulled up the blinds & took about a hundred pics.

Does anyone know what it is? (SE Texas / Gulf Coast) I'm not knowledgeable enough to ID it.

Such an incredible thing to witness. I've never been that close to a hawk. My heart was pounding so hard! (w excitement lol)

Awe-inspiring. Felt very once in a lifetime.

#birding #BirdWatching #BirdPhotography #hawk #NaturePhotography

A large hawk perched on the top of a weathered gray fence. The feather pattern is a mottled brown and tan. It has a large insect in its mouth and is looking directly at me. 

For context, this was the moment I pulled up the blinds. The hawk immediately turned to look at me, but evidently decided I was not a threat because it proceeded to eat.
Profile view of the hawk showings its right side. The hawk is holding the insect in its claw and is bent over eating it.

For context, this is the best photo I have of the tail. I included it because I thought it might be helpful in identifying it. It's also just a really cool picture lol.
Back view of the hawk with its head turned to the side. The profile emphasizes the curved hook of its beak and the smooth feathers cascading down its back like a brown and tan waterfall.

For context, the hawk perched for a few minutes on the fence after it finished eating the insect. The pose feels very regal and statuesque. A magnificent creature serenely surveying its surroundings before taking flight.

Backyard birds hide.

This red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) was flying over checking out the backyard birds. The hawk hid among the vultures - quite clever. I found a puff of feathers in the yard not long before taking this photograph.

"This is probably the most common hawk in North America. If you’ve got sharp eyes you’ll see several individuals on almost any long car ride, anywhere. Red-tailed Hawks soar above open fields, slowly turning circles on their broad, rounded wings. Other times you’ll see them atop telephone poles, eyes fixed on the ground to catch the movements of a vole or a rabbit, or simply waiting out cold weather before climbing a thermal updraft into the sky." - allaboutbirds.org

#photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #birds #birdsofmastodon #birdwatching #RedTailedHawk #hawk #raptor #BirdofPrey

This hawk is flying from the lower left to the upper right, in this frame. The background is light blue sky.

The hawk's head is oriented straight ahead but from below its right dark eye is visible and I can see the hook of its short dark beak.  Its head is mostly dark brown a color that carries on running about halfway down the front of the wings.  The underside of the wings and flight feathers are light tan, but the tips of the flight feathers are dark brown.  There is also a dark marking just before the wing tips.  The underside of the hawk's body is also light tan but there are dark speckles across the chest area.  Light color legs and feet fold back against the tail.  Reddish brown tail feathers fan out almost 45 degrees.

"Red-tailed Hawks are large hawks with typical Buteo proportions: very broad, rounded wings and a short, wide tail. Large females seen from a distance might fool you into thinking you’re seeing an eagle. (Until an actual eagle comes along.) Most Red-tailed Hawks are rich brown above and pale below, with a streaked belly and, on the wing underside, a dark bar between shoulder and wrist. The tail is usually pale below and cinnamon-red above, though in young birds it’s brown and banded. “Dark-morph” birds are all chocolate-brown with a warm red tail. “Rufous-morph” birds are reddish-brown on the chest with a dark belly." - allaboutbirds.org
