Jennifer Massey has a pair of these beautiful hawks coming to a tree on Sea Ranch. She recently photographed one of them in the tree.

Craig Tooley also photographed a Red-shouldered Hawk, either exercising its wings or preparing for flight.

Thanks to Jennifer and Craig for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
