It Was A Fruitful Day Birdwatching
Author: siggyI believe it was last Saturday. We were driving down our road and we spotted a hawk perched high on a tree on our left. My wife wanted a second look so we turned around and stopped our car at that spot. The hawk soon after flew away. It could not tolerate our presence. My wife saw the red on its tail as it flew away. It was a red tailed hawk and a juvenile (less than a year old according to my bird book). Then we got on the main high way along the River and my wife saw two bald eagles soaring high in the sky. I was disappointed. I had never seen two at once but only spotted one. It was a fruitful day birdwatching. I like surprises and new bird discoveries.
