Red-tailed hawks in the dead tree in front of my neighbor’s house here in Tucson. Photo taken November 27, 2020<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We’re still getting used to being city dwellers after spending the last 6 1\/2 years in rural Flagstaff. One of our biggest surprises has been the number of birds in our midtown Tucson neighborhood. We have tons of doves, flocks of them in the trees and foraging in our front yard, along with a few pigeons and some other birds I haven’t identified yet. The coolest of the avian life forms, though, are the red-tailed hawks and cooper’s hawks. The red tails have a nest in a huge eucalyptus tree down the road from us, and they hang out in the dead tree in front of my neighbor’s house. My Panasonic Lumix point-and-shoot has a 20x zoom, so I’m able to get some pretty good shots of birds in tree tops. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
