I missed the sunny day. Had chores to do. So cabin fever overtook me
yesterday and I decided to brave the weather and look for the RED-SHOULDERED
HAWK. I found him where others have said, just inside the Thurston Co. line
on Independence Rd. He came out to the edge of a clearing about 100 yards
from me and moving around in trees for almost an hour, giving me some good
view from that distance. He did not seem real at ease so I didn't try to get
closer but with a fine mist I settled for the somewhat fuzzy photos I have
posted.
I forgot to take my notes so I missed on the kites and prairie falcon. Did
take a few pictures of some BALD EAGLES singing a duet. They really put on a
show for a few minutes.

As I write this I see a glimpse of sun..............
