Our local male red tail hawk taking a bath in the run off from a leaking sprinkler.

Go on…..What is this bird?

Goldfinch screaming its heart out while RTH surveys the land.

Apologies for the bad photo quality. Although its tail doesn’t seem very red, its calls were exactly those of a juvenile Red-tailed Hawk.

I’m terrible at bird ID so sticking my neck out with some fear..;))

Caught this beauty flying over a lake yesterday

I've been obsessed with watching the Hellgate Osprey live cam, and I don't mean to anthropomorphize them, but whenever their juvenile is fish calling, do the parent ospreys not get annoyed? Or whenever the juvenile fights them for the fish?

I found these guys on Golden Prairie Bison properties near Valentine, NE earlier this week while looking for sites to set up cameras to look for the rare Plains Spotted Skunk (Spilogale (putorius) interrupta). The Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia) is at a small prairie dog town. The American Kestrel (Falco sparverius) is perched on a power line near a canyon behind the main property.

My deck feeder cam caught a bird making a pass at my crow family during their family breakfast this morning. At a quick glance I thought it was a bald eagle but when I slowed it down and took some screen grabs it might be too small? The video quality isn't great at the speed it was flying. Can anyone ID it?

I know I know, may very well be the easiest to ID next to say a crow

Im just always blessed and get excited when I see one, which is pretty regularly in truth.

But excited that it landed in that tree after flying over me while getting gas this morning.

It was being such a total ham too.

Just happy to finally get clear photos

I have a short video but it won’t let me upload at the moment.

Hope you enjoy!

Here’s a slightly better view of Big Chicken this was last night! She (he?) hung out and listened to music with us for a little over an hour, moving around to different parts of the yard in the trees, on the fence, and on the ground. BC was still there when we went inside, I could see her through the window on the ground. I feel like we have a pet owl!
