Hawks

Raptors

In recent years, I have had the privilege to observe and photograph the feeding habits of several birds of prey. This includes, but is not limited to, the Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) in British Columbia, the Northern Hawk Owl (Surnia ulula) in Alaska, the White-tailed Sea Eagle (Haliaeetus albicilla) and Red Kite (Milvus milvus), both in Scotland, as well as the Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), the Gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus), Harris’ Hawk (Parabuteo unicinctus) and the Little Owl (Athene noctua), introduced into Scotland in the 19th century.
