When we arrived today we found the female Red-tailed Hawk on the nest, and the male on the far away cell phone tower as per usual. While we were observing, the juvenile hawk began moving about in the nest. His mother shifted to another branch in response to this squirming, giving us our first look at least one fine looking white, fluffy eyas. Note what appears to be an egg shell on the rim of the nest just to the left of the eyas.
