August 18 – BOTD – Red-Tailed Hawk

Here is my entry for Granny Shot It’s  Bird of the Day (BOTD) challenge.

Re-tailed hawk perched on a branch at UNF nature trail in Jacksonville.

Whether they are soaring or circling, there is no mistaking the red tail when you spot a red-tailed hawk in the air. See my blog oureyesopen.com for the full story that led to this photo. Learn more about this magnificent bird of prey at Audubon’s site.
