Wow! Two hawks in the birdbath!
Red shouldered hawks?
@ExecutiveFunction404 We are in Tucson, so heat dome is all June every June.
Oh geez...I remember when I went to az, I went to Sedona & Phoenix, with stops between, but I don't remember where offhand. I do remember being sunburned really badly from falling asleep on Lake Tahoe, so when it was 117°, I went out in a long sleeve shirt & sweatpants bc it felt better than the sun on my crispy skin. That's where I learned the difference between a dry & a humid heat. lol
@Boyceaz
Do you think they're both juveniles? I had assumed, though it is hard to tell, that the left one was an adult & the right juvenile.
I have a red tail hawk's nest somewhere in the patch of woods behind my house, and I randomly get a peek at them. It took a hell of a lot of searching & comparing, but with the calls & plumage, I'm almost positive this is a juvenile red tail.
Either way, they're all gorgeous animals! I'm sure they appreciated the water, esp if you're in the heat dome 🩷
