Swasinson's Hawks over southwest Aurora...

Photos by BarrytheBirder 

Swainson's Hawks continue to soar around above southwest Aurora in recent days.   Immediately above,  one the hawks attempts to perch atop a tall fir tree near Butternut Ridge Trail.


This is the third year in a row that Swainson's Hawks have inhabited Aurora.  Above, one of the Swainson's Hawks is seen, last year, perched on a rooftop railing at Delmanor Retirement Residence in southwest Aurora.   Swainsons Hawks are more commonly found in the midwest U.S.A., but are known to be also found in the eastern U.S.A. and in southern Ontario.
