Look who dropped in this morning?

Red Tailed Hawk, Connecticut US, 7 March 2025.

A red tailed hawk with the sun on its breast perched on a slice of stump placed on top of a chess board looking sideways toward the camera showing off feathers and sharp talons. Surrounding the bird are small stones and seashells. The background features a blurred natural setting.
Close up of a red tailed hawk face looking directly into the camera with wind ruffled light cream breast feathers streaked with russet, brown head and back. It absolutely knows the photographer is there, safely behind a wall and window five feet away.

It’s very windy and there is construction (replacement of a sewer line) disrupting the woods where the red tails nest so I imagine they are Not Pleased.

@IcooIey that is an expression that says ‘not pleased’.

To be fair, not sure raptors have any expressions other than 'I will tear you apart". Except burrowing owls. They are goofballs.

@IcooIey they do scowl somewhat it’s true. I’ve not met a burrowing owl but now I want to.
