Title: redtail hawk chicks
Post by: steve rossi on May 24, 2009, 10:11:47 AM

Neil and I have been been watching this nest for the last couple of months, there are three chicks , there is quite a size differance between the largerst and youngest one.
We watched the female bring food which they all tore into with glee.
We watched them last week as well and noted a big change in there development in one week.
