A SMALL RED-TAIL HAWK
April 19th at about 4:00 p.m., I came back from my walk
to
find this hawk in our backyard, eyeing my tasty chipmunks. It
was
a very small Red-Tail Hawk, the smallest I have seen .

This and the first were taken from the deck on the west side of our house.
The hawk flew about thirty feet to our back yard. I went
around
the house and took a few more shots. Then I moved
one
step
too close, and it took off to a neighbor's yard.
