Photo by Barry Wallace
The Swainson's Hawk I featured in this space several times late last year and had subsequently thought, back in September, to have migrated south for the winter has suddenly reappeared in January's freezing temperatures here in Aurora in southern Ontario. A fellow resident of the Delmanor Retirement Residence where I live, showed me a photo which he had taken, a day or so ago, of the Swainson's Hawk I had become so familiar with. Obviously, with the cold temperatures hereabouts, but with very light snow cover so far this winter, this bird is finding food and is not thinking it should be in Mexico or points further south.
