Lifer #275! Found this beautiful hawk sitting on the piles of dirt near the fire-station (Big Blue Building) South of Marine Drive. Eventually it flew to towards the river and hunted by catching the updraft of the Southward winds that created an updraft when they came off the river and blew up the bank. The Hawk would hover like an osprey, barely flapping 10-20 feet above the hilltop, or kite, and then dive towards prey in the bushes below. It was successful once, though I couldn't make out what it had caught. It immediately resumed hunting, continuing for nearly a half hour before returning to sit on a fence near the fire station. Got some good photos and video. Hawk, same sized as a RTH. Lighter face with dark overall body, white chest, and a faint dark band near the neck. Had noticeable white uppertail visible in flight, along with dark spots at the wrists. It was comfortable on the fence with me at 30 yards, and when flying, hovered 5-10 yards above walkers on several occasions. Should provide anyone wanting to take photographs with a willing subject. PS. Parking in the fire station parking lot is free, versus paying $5 at the boat ramp west of the beach.
