A watchful eye
I had just finished a walk at the southern edge of the Cross Conservation Area on Sunday morning and started driving down a few country roads on my way home. I realized that I had no idea at all which gravel roads I needed to take, so returned to where a couple of the people were still talking. My sense of direction seems to be almost non-existant, so I said that I needed to follow behind someone till I got to familiar ground. That's when I noticed this beautiful Hawk perched on a fence post. I'm not good at Hawk ID, but my guess would be a Swainson's Hawk. If it is, then it is one of these birds that swooped down very low over my head yesterday, while I was taking photos in northwest Calgary, on the Bearspaw Lasso Trail!! It had already swooped down over all four of us, but I then seemed to be singled out as a good target for further attacks, LOL. There must have been a nest in the area.
