Red-Shouldered Bonanza (26Mar2014)

I went back to Burnt Mill Creek before dark to look for owls and was treated to an extremely tame Red-Shouldered Hawk.


Not a hawk you say?  Well you are correct my reader, but this Pied-billed Grebe was begging me for a picture.


Here is the Red-shouldered Hawk swooping down for what I think was grubs or beetles.


Handsome devil was patiently awaiting whatever it was hunting for and did not mind that I was about 10 feet away.


The setting sun highlighting the red colors.




Got one!


Some tasty morsel, not sure if its a grub or beetle.


Yuuuuummmm!  Made me so hungry that I went home and ate some of my home grown collards that my beautiful wife cooked up for me.

Great times!
