Wood Duck (Aix sponsa)Observer
wildcarrotDescription
We had a fantastic time camping, and compared to the previous weekend, it was like a switch flipped! Suddenly so many animals out and about, and flowers blooming!
Watched these 2 wood ducks from our tent for about 30 minutes until someone on the trail nearby startled them away.

A pair of hawks have found good hunting in my yard. Here they are sharing a perch. The tail of a red squirrel was on the ground beneath the larger of the two - perhaps the female (right side of photo)

This could be a Sharp-shinned Hawk. The bird in its talons looks like a Rail, possibly a Clapper Rail.

editwenchDescription
Just as I started walking across the off ramps to get closer, this hawk dove down into the brush beside the off ramp for a meal. so I tried to snap a couple shots and realized, I need to get back to the curb before this light changes (people FLY off down this ramp from the 5 Fwy north!). I was unable to get any shots of meal time, but was able to get a few nice shots as it perched on a street light and then telephone pole.

I observed these two for a while. The buteo looked at me several times while it was perched on the power lines. The buteo seemed to want some help with the pestering kestrel.
