Mar 17, 2019: Rough-legged Hawk



As I was rounding the SW corner of the north lake I noticed a Rough-legged Hawk perched on the roof of a mini-shelter.  The hawk flushed, flew westward along the trail, and then dropped to the ground.  The hawk rose quickly, clutching a rodent in its talons.  Then it flew to the ice (north lake's west bay) and started to devour the meal. (Wolf. Oesterreich, 3/15/19)
