Red-tailed Hawk Taking Off
Red-tailed Hawk Taking Off
The picture of this Red-tailed Hawk Taking Off was photographed at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens, New York. It was photographed at the West Pond not too far from the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge Visitor center on a really cold windy day in March.

It’s interesting how pointy its wings are on the right side and how blunt (square) they are on the left side.
He sounds like the high-pitched whistle in “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.”
