Seems I need to correct my identification as this appears to be a young Red-Tailed Hawk.

Mother Nature does know her stuff!

Quite right. My confusion came from the sighting of a young Cooper's Hawk seen the week before.

Seems there are citizens of the United States who identify as Americans first and Republicans second.

If actors wish each other luck by saying, "Break a leg," do musicians say "Break a string" before going onstage?

If so, "Break a sting!" 🎸🎵

PS I'm no musician.🫠
