There's so much fun in being able to identify something you see, or hear in this case, in nature. Last week as we headed down our usual path at Gum Grove Park in Seal Beach, we heard these hawks calling to each other. We'd heard them a few times before and had even seen them perched on one of the branches high up in the Blue Gum Eucalyptus trees.
Whatbird.com has some good audios of bird calls and after listening to a few; the Cooper's hawk, the Red-tailed hawk, it led me to the Red Shouldered Hawk, BINGO! The call matches our mystery hawk's exactly :)
