This is why I like carrying around a camera with optical zoom. Good luck spotting the hawk in the third photo.

Pair of Red-tailed Hawks
I heard these hawks calling to each other, then they each landed on this tower. I thought I saw a third one land there too, but by the time I was in a position to take any pictures, there were only the two. After a minute or two, a group of three smaller birds showed up and chased one of the hawks off. A few minutes later, the other flew off to join it, and I could see them circling together off in the distance.

Red-Tailed Hawk (in palm tree)
I saw 4 or 5 crows repeatedly dive-bombing the top of this palm tree, cawing loudly, and heard the screech of a hawk at one point. It wasn’t until after the crows had given up that I made it to the other side where I could see this hawk just holding still. It flew off a little bit later.
