Happened to look out at our bird feeders yesterday and this fellow was out there.
Sorry about the crappy pics, had to shoot though 3 layers of glass and a screen. These were taken using my phone, regular camera the pics were even worse.
Anyway, yep, its a Redtail Hawk. He wasn't eating seed, he got a mouse or chipmunk that had come in to get the seeds on the ground. It was kinda funny, the other birds were still coming in and eating while he was munching down, totally ignoring the hawk. I watched him for a while and after he left I went out to see what he had caught. All that was left was a couple tufts of fur.
