White hawk

[luberhill]

We have seen this pure white red tail hawk for the past three years now.

This summer I didn’t see him much but just now I see he’s back

Yea everything I’ve read says they don’t live long because other “normal” colored hawks will kill them

This is the third year he’s been back.

There is a normal colored one that hangs around with the white one

It's hard to tell from the picture but I think we have a lot of those here in Oswego.  They hang out near the lake and also prey on dropped french fries in the McDonalds parking lot.    Seriously, very neat and unusual.

Ha funny , my wife is a wildlife biologist , it’s a leucistic red tailed hawk.

I wish I could upload the video you could hear it screaming at me …

Its the typical red tail call..

Funny u say that because when we first saw it three years ago I told my wife “ that’s a fricken seagull”

Stupid entitled white hawk. Where's his shame? Flying around all arrogant like.

Dumb thing is probably a conservative, too.
