Red-tailed Hawk

Buteo jamaicensis

Description:

This hawk was sitting above a storage container at my work (Huntington Library). I took a step toward him every time he turned away, and ended up right below him. He was very curious about the clicking of my camera. Then he yawned. It was an amazing encounter!

Habitat:

Huntington LIbrary, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens
