Hi all,
 
While out doing some field work today, my co-worker and I came across a RED-TAILED HAWK eating a CHUKAR on a frisbee-golf course at the corner of Paint Branch Parkway and Kenilworth Ave.   I have posted an image at the address below of the hawk eating (5th picture down).  Also I birded in various locations yesterday with some highlights being a light phase ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK over I-70, North of Big Pool, and the blackbird roost at Finzel swamp had ~170 RUSTY BLACKBIRDs all flying in in groups of 20-30 birds.
