Yard Bird #70 ~ Red-tailed Hawk



I was watching and enjoying the birds feeding in my backyard when a hawk swooped in and grabbed a Dark-eyed Junco.  He sat on the fence about 10 ft from the house to eat it.  When he perched I was able to ID the bird as a Red-tailed hawk.  Normally I see Cooper's Hawk picking off my yard birds and not very often at that but who knows what happens while I am at work.  (pictures were taken through the window so the quality isn't as good as I'd like)
