Hi all,

Is anyone aware of the ID of the hawk or owl that I have seen twice at 
Oregon Ridge Park?  I saw it this afternoon fly out of the fenced-in marsh 
area.  I was near that old falling down building when I turned toward the 
direction of the nature center, and I saw this bird flying out of the marsh 
area being pursued by a lone Red-winged Blackbird.

This bird was brownish-red (or reddish-brown?), and had a good sized 
wingspan.  It would have to be something that could easily navigate among 
the trees there, as it went off into the woods near the nature center.

Good birding,
Richard
