One morning this past summer i was abruptly woken up by some loud squawking coming from outside. There was the obvious alarm calls from the squirrels and other small birds but there was also loud squawking from a hawk. I was very excited to see 2 broadwinged hawks perched on an old birdhouse and some tree limbs at the very back of the yard. Unfortunately i didn't have my camera ready that day and didn't get any pictures of the pair hunting for voles together but my father did take a few pictures a week or two later of one of the pair while it was in the yard.
I am unsure which is the male and which is the female, and now that i look at these photos again i am unsure if they are both broadwinged hawks. Oh well, they are great looking birds.
