    Raptor sightings

    ...no, not THAT kind!

    On Sunday a bald eagle flew over my car, heading south; and yesterday I saw a pair of red-tailed hawks at work. Those big birds of prey are impressive!

    Smokey,

    Aren't they beautiful creatures?? We have alot of red tailed hawks in CT. They'll sit up on a street light and watch traffic go by for hours. Whenever I see something like that, it makes me smile. Nature is such a wonderful, magical thing that we need to protect.

    Aren't they so amazing! We have a Bald Eagle that stop by our yard almost daily. We have several hawks too, mostly Red-Shoulder hawks. Even seeing them as often as I do I'm always in awe of them.

    I see Red Shoulder Hawks quite frequently around here.
    And twice I've seen a bald eagle, they've only started nesting in my county 3 or 4 years ago.
    My sister lives in SW Missouri and in the fall there are flocks of them flying out of (morning) and into (evening) the valley behind their house to their nests. It's breath taking to see so many at one time. My sister's house is on top of the valley and when they fly out they're so close that you can actually hear their wings flapping!! It's the most amazing thing ever!!

    There are two islands in the Hudson River, Iona Is. and Constitution Is. There's a road called the "goat trail" over Bear Mountain, with an overlook to those islands, which is prime eagle watching.
