Red Shouldered Hawk flew in perched on a shepherd's hook that supports
one of our hummer feeders; saw it from inside the house, tried to reach
my camera but it saw me, turned around then flew up into our cedars. No
photo. I had a very good look at it, positive of ID. Big bird on a
skinny support. Considering their preferred diet of squirrels, I took a
quick census, found ours all stealing bird seed...

We are in Castle Hill area of Port Townsend, with a woodlot across to
the north and a long stand of cedars and firs across our back line to
the south.
