p.1 #1 · A Red-tailed hawk performing rhythmic gymnastics
I had the funniest interaction with a juvi Red-tailed hawk recently. This guy was sitting in a tree when he came down on a steep dive to the grass below, I assumed he was diving for a vole which is their primary diet in this particular location. I started firing off some shots but quickly realized that it wasn't a vole but a black rubber ball that looked like the end of a turkey baster. He proceeded to play with the ball, throwing it up in the air numerous times and chasing it in the grass, reminded me of a gymnast performing with a ball, I couldn't stop laughing.
