Looked out my window around 7:30am and soaring above our Austrian Pines were 3 Rough-legged Hawks (Buteo lagopus). I grabbed my digiscoping setup on its tripod and ran out on the deck. The hawks watched me as I struggled to find them through my scope and obligingly continued to quietly soar in the light breeze while I took these videos. It seemed they disappeared by the next day, heading north for the Spring nesting season. These hawks had spent the winter here with us hunting in the conservation grass/sage habitat directly to the south of our house out in the country. It was sad to see them go. Shot in Adams Co., Washington, USA.
