Who's That?

My only clear view of this Red-Tailed Hawk was from behind. But he improved matters for me when he got curious and looked back.

Where I come from (Virginia), Red-Tailed Hawks are the hawks, and I see them everywhere, including in deep woods and peoples' back yards. Here, I find them only in their preferred habitat: grassland and farmland (though sometimes very small tracts of grassland), where they hunt the small rodents that form their staple diet. This one was on the experimental farm. My theory is that there are more of them in Virginia, so some have to settle for less-than-ideal habitat.
