It Is Back

Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk
The leucistic Red-tailed Hawk has returned to the Childers Run Road area of Route 33 east of Buckhannon. Barb Sargent reported it last week. i didn't have anywhere to take the dogs to today; so I rode over there. I was hoping to get better photos than last year and accomplished the task. this shot isn't my best one of the day. But, it is the most interesting. It is having Fox Squirrel for lunch. You can also plainly see that it does not have a pink eye.

  1. It looks like one I saw many times near Winchester, VA, over a few years. Although I haven't seen it since 2013, I often wonder what happened to it. Beautiful photo!

  2. This one was at the same spot last year in early December.
