Ahhhh some of my favorite birds! Especially the red-tailed hawk. Excellent work as always ❤️
As a subfamily in the hawk-and-eagle order, are diurnal predators with broad, rounded wings, sturdy body shape, short tail, and a strong, hooked beak. Various species can be found throughout the world, with most choosing to nest on forest edges, near fields and other open areas full of prey.
