January wonder
Posted by laura bellel on January 04, 2018 | Add new comment
Just when it seemed too cold for anything but cozy indoor projects, an outdoor wonder appeared.
When the ground is frozen and the world is ice cold, I toss seeds and crumbs to the birds. Today this fine feathered beauty was waiting and watching the festival of sparrows and pigeons from the power lines
Those feathers!
I think this is a red-tailed hawk.
What surprised me the most was that the birds on the ground didn't seem to mind him at all. Also that he simply watched them for nearly an hour.
Then off he went. I wonder if he'd already eaten?
