Life Bird #314

This is a Swainson's Hawk (Buteo swainsoni). They can migrate 14,000 miles from North America’s Pacific Northwest (including Alaska), all the way down to Southern South America. They alter their diet from small mammals to insects.

A Swainsons Hawk in Southeast Oregon. He was not impressed with me and my giant clicky tube 👀

Got a lovely photo of Whistler yesterday with the cherry blossoms. They are already in full bloom at the raptor center I volunteer at! 🌸 #swainsonshawk #birds

#flyday is always a hard one for me, but here is a lovely Swainson’s Hawk (Buteo swainsoni) on the wing. Swaineys are just one of my favorite raptors, especially the dark morphs. #birds #raptors #hawkyeah #swainsonshawk

My totally terrible, but certainly identifiable pic of the Swainson's Hawk at the Brooklyn recycling plant this morning. Shot from ~250 yards away. For those unfamiliar, they are normally found west of the Mississippi #birding #birds #rarity #swainsonshawk

Two for #Twosday: two Swainson's hawks in one of our trees during migration a few months ago. They were here with about a dozen of their friends early one morning. It was quite a sight.
