WOW! Great shot Lynn! Keep the little animals in and away from these two birds! V

Wow! How amazing to see this pair of Red Shoulder Hawks in your back yard. Plus it must have been even more amazing to see them mate. Very sharp shot through the glass. Very nicely photographed indeed. Beautiful birds!!! This image shows how wild suburbia still is. Do you have any idea where they may be nesting? Have you seen them in the neighborhood before. Fantastic capture!

Wow - what a pair, I agree with Patricia - they look a bit tired... Irene

WOW!!! This is an AMAZING shot, Lynn. It is almost like seeing double! We think we're lucky if we see one red-shouldered hawk up here. VVV

Ha, brilliant...but in the interests of science you should've shown them mating too ;-)))
