Daily Postcard: Red-tailed Hawk Soars Above Jemez

Daily Postcard: A juvenile Red-tailed Hawk was spotted Wednesday during a hike in the Jemez Mountains. Red-tailed Hawks soar above open fields, slowly turning circles on their broad, rounded wings. Other times they perch atop telephone poles, eyes fixed on the ground to catch the movements of a vole or rabbit, or simply wait out cold weather before climbing a thermal updraft into the sky. The oldest known wild Red-tailed Hawk was at least 30 years, 8 months old when it was found in Michigan in 2011, the same state where it had been banded in 1981. Source: allaboutbirds.org.
