Red-shouldered Hawk
While filming the little birds that come to my office patio feeder, I caught a glimpse of this beautiful, juvenile Red-shouldered Hawk. This bird and his parents make a living on our property. They have a nest in a large tree quite near the… Continue Reading “Red-shouldered Hawk”

Angry Bird!

The Woodpecker observes, then selects her own, delicious peanut-nugget. The Sparrow turns to fly away, but drops his nugget… Continue Reading “Proper Way to Eat a Suet Nugget”
