Hi (((Dita)))
Aren't they impressive birds! :) Here are our friends from the refuge ;) The male has eyesight troubles. I'm not sure what happened with the female.

We enjoy seeing a Redtail who hangs around our neighborhood and yard. I just hope he doesn't get our residential bunny ;)

Hi, my friend! Those redtails are beautiful. I ache for them not being able to fly and do what they are made to do, to soar and swoop.
Once, I was walking into one of the canyons in the Santa Monica Mountains to go for a hike and saw a redtail swoop down and capture a rodent. Not sure if it was rat or possum. (Actually, possums are marsupials.)
There are tall eucalyptus trees on the hill behind my apartment building, and I would often see one or two redtails perched in the highest branches. But I have not seen them in a long time... sad they left....:(
So, how was your day with son...?
