Red tailed eyass

 

The baby red tailed hawks are growing quickly.

It is interesting to see how fast they develop their musculature.




Physiology advances quickly with raptors. Note the food in the nest that mother has left for them. She is leaving the nest for longer and longer periods now.

One of my true yearly joys watching this take place.

Birds often grow up fast, it improves survival.
