Temporary residents



The circled area in the upper photo is of a nest that is visible from our lawn.  The telephoto zoom enabled me to get the image of the chicks.  This is the second year that we have had a pair of hawks nesting there.  This is the first time that we have been able to view the chicks.  We have not positively identified the species of hawk, but think it is probably a Red Tail (buteo jamaicensis).
