Filed Under Hawks, Winter 2011
The talons of a Northern Goshawk is sometimes the last thing a squirrel sees. These formidable weapons are long and sharp. I found this dead juvenile goshawk in the woods and couldn’t resist a still life of the claws.
This juvenile Red-tailed Hawk was found roosting in a tree in Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge.

I watched this hawk this afternoon as he sat on a wire patiently watching for mice in the wheat field below him. A lunge, a catch and then time to enjoy. It doesn’t get much better than that if you’re a hawk. I watched him get three mice in about 15 minutes.
