(insert red-tailed hawk emoji here)
Been feeling very nostalgic lately, so here’s a sketch of a certain red-tailed hawk… will probably go back and render this, but until then! ✌️

Top of 2023:
Red-tailed hawks are amazing animals to observe in the field. As one of the largest birds of prey in North America, they strike an imposing figure in the wild and given their high adaptability they can be found in a wide range of habitats. This one took up residence in a large tree next to a church and was one of several we observed around the Somerville area north of Boston. We even spotted some territorial disputes between a couple of them.
When you think about a developed urban area it can be hard to envision an apex predator like a hawk having any success, but Somerville’s population of rodents (squirrels, rats, and rabbits) may have played a part. However, chemical rodent controls like poisons and pesticides can have a wider impact than just the targeted species. Red-tailed hawks, owls, and falcons have all been observed to be harmed by rodenticide and eating meat impacted by pesticides or a poor diet (i.e. rodents scavenging on refuse).
