Promised Joanne I'd post a pic from last week. Went there today and thought there was nothing where I had spotted this one before. As I was leaving, I  happened to look up and there they were at the edge of the woods.  Mr. and Mrs.  He even had his way with her .. but I missed the photo op .. may be just as well. LOL


Today

Heavily cropped .. focused on the one above , which I believe is the male as he's smaller and has darker eyes.

Sometimes the best shots come when you think the day is over and you didn't see anything
then all of a sudden " BAM"

:lol:

Thanks Sue.  Cool photos.  :D  I'm thrilled to know the male and female are there again - and mating!  I've only been seeing the male around.  I was at Maplewood Park yesterday - no hawks and no activity at last year's nest.  Perhaps that's about to change!  

btw - I was at Lake Wabukayne on Friday and there was no "Woody".   :(

Great sighting!  Spring is definitely in the air.
