Bird of Prey


The very first time I saw a Red-shouldered Hawk ( Bufeo Lineatus) I was very impressed by the size and stunning beauty. I remember that he landed right on top of a vole (Field rodent) and grabbed it with his great talons, then killed it and swallowed it whole! Powerful bird, great flyer with acute eyesight.














This species of hawks are well known all across USA, at certain times these birds fly in large flocks. Many name the red-shouldered Hawk as the most skilled flyers.
