Subject: Red-shouldered Hawk in Benton County

Yesterday (1/31/98), Tony Greager found a Red-shouldered Hawk along the
Yakima River in West Richland. Several observers were able to relocate the
bird today.

The bird appears to be a sub-adult, similar to the one that had been at
Madame Dorian Park in Wallula last fall.

If anyone is interested in seeing this bird, it can be located at the
corner of Grosscup and Snively Roads, DeLorme page 29, T10N, R27E, sec 30.
It is perching in trees along the river and can be seen from the bridges.
