red-tailed hawk riding
the thermals,
tracing the perimeter
of a freshly gleaned field
We saw two fledgling bald eagles in the near cottonwood yesterday - we don't often see them this far from the river. They travel as a pair; they make the hawks look like sparrows by comparison. We also spied a couple of rooster pheasants on the edge of the cornfield over the weekend. They are not common any more in this area, as the fencelines are all down and cover is rare. All sacrificed to the corn crop. Don't get me started.
