p.1 #1 · Rough Legged Hawk on the Left Coast

This morning I clicked on this RLH paralleling me on the South Jetty Road. They're usually absent from this area----At one point, it was joined by a Harrier and they seemed to enjoy each other's company. The RLH had a completely different flight pattern and would spend much time hovering over spots while the Harrier had a continuous glide. Thanks for viewing!

What're YOU lookin' at?

Jim -
Sure is a nice looking raptor. And the "combo" shot is certainly a bonus.

Is that the left coast when facing south, or north?

Wow, Jim - great BIF captures! Personal favs are 1 & 3. Must have been cool to see two sleek raptors sharing some airspace.
