At approximately 1430, a rough-legged hawk was hunting the field that makes up the SW quadrat of Cherry La x Warren Rd. It sat watching from trees on N side of Cherry la, then (disturbed by my stopping car) it moved a bit W along Cherry, then East to sit on airport fencing along Warren’s E edge, S of Cherry La intersection.
Sitting or in flight, there seemed to be lots of white patches. Mostly though salt frosted windows, I managed to get some REALLY bad pictures that confirmed a bright light patch on brow and possibly around throat. Quite a distinctive head. Anne Anne B.
