This is the mom. She has a nest at the end of our new driveway. Now there was a nest there last year but did not know if hawks nest in the same best each year or if it gets taken over by another hawk or an owl or something.
Anyway, she had two offspring this year. For the last several weeks we have been doing a slow drive by watching the baby hawks, which are called eyas, sit in the nest. I hold this imagine in my mind of there fuzzy little heads illuminated by the late afternoon sun.
Now, they are still not flying but instead perch out on a limb most of the afternoon.
