What birds of prey do you have there, that you know of?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Fishy716 In reply to explodingheads [2012-06-05 02:40:29 +0000 UTC]

Cooper's hawk, Broad-winged hawk, Sharp-Shinned hawk, I believe we have Double-crested Cormorant, Osprey aka the 'fish hawk', Great Horned owl, Screech owl (I believe eastern?), Barn owls, and Barred owls and the Bald Eagle.

Those are the ones I know of.

I see that you know yr birds, that so cool!
I don't think there is any Broad-Winged hawks around here, either way these are some beautiful creatures.

Indeed I do, I'm a semi-bird watcher (I guess that's how I describe myself. I enjoy bird watching but I'm not a super bird enthusiast xp)
None at all? Sadness. I love seeing Cooper's hawks, and they fly around a couple of miles away from where I live Beautiful creatures indeed.
What type of raptors/birds of prey are in your area?
