Observation details
Noticed the small, pencil-legged accipiter this morning in a red cedar shrub. Now, back in the same tree, this time going down to the ground below the tree. Interesting behavior to observe, hopping around exploring and actually picking up loose twigs then tossing them back. As it flew off, low, to the east, I caught a glimpse of another large bird take off from high above in a tree directly above the sharpie and follow it. As if it was waiting to accompany the other. Possibly a second sharpie, and moving in tandem.
