We have plenty of red-tailed hawks here, but they usually keep their distance, riding the thermals on hot days, looking for hapless mice. Not this guy; he's set up shop in my backyard, watching my bird feeders. Here he is on the railing of my deck, just a few feet from my back door (pretty bold for a hawk to get this close). He doesn't want the bird feed, he wants the birds, who very wisely won't go near the feeders when he's around.
