The call of a Red Tailed Hawk broke my concentration of garage door painting
(much better than putting up wall paper). I got my bins and found more than
I anticipated. The Red-tailed was harassing a Bald Eagle. Scanning the
sky, I found 2 more Bald Eagles, 2 Northern Harriers (I also had one earlier
in the morning) and then a Broad Winged went by ... all in the space of 2
minutes. The Eagles chirped to each other a bit and then the skies cleared.
