Semi Tropic Spiritualists' Tract: Hawk In Nest

Photo: Gary Vlahakis, March 16, 2014.  Bird's eye view of the Red Tailed Hawk in the nest at corner of Allesandro & Rosebud in the Northbound 2 Freeway parkway.  (Click on photo to enlarge.) 

Vlahakis thinks this is the female.  She is enormous.  Females are typically larger than the males of the species.
