... no, not mine. I wish! :D
Today I was walking around Lake Aquitaine between 9am - 11:15am. At 10:30am, heard Blue Jays squawking up a storm, glanced up and saw the hawk sitting on a 5th floor balcony railing on high rise building (North side of lake). Wow, what a huge beauty! The hawk sat there for quite awhile then took off - directly into path of a Crow! The crow went after the hawk with a vengeance, was dive bombing it and chasing it around a condo at SE end of lake.
Other sightings today (Sunday, February 13th):
Blue Jays x 6
Canada Geese - flying overhead, heading NW.
Cardinals x 8 - singing up a storm all around the lake!
Chickadees - lots
Crow x 1
House Sparrows - lots
Juncos - a few
Mockingbird x 1
Mourning Doves x 16
Red-breasted Nuthatch x 1
Lake Aquitaine: SE corner of Glen Erin Dr./Aquitaine Ave., behind the Meadowvale Community Centre.
