I clocked a red-tailed hawk today, visually, and I caught its screeches on the Merlin app. Since I started logging birds around The Wallow, I’ve found red tailed Hawks and red shouldered hawks. What I haven’t seen are coopers hawks. I called them coopers for years, but I think I was misidentifying then the whole time. This is a photo (not mine) of a red tailed hawk, and it looks exactly like the ones Joshua and I used to spot on the brush pile on the land behind ours.
