We get lots of red shouldered and red tailed hawks here. I would probably see several every day if I spent much time looking outside. We get turkey vultures and black vultures which are huge birds that soar really well. We get crested caracaras which are beautiful birds. I think there are Eagles around here, but I've never seen one. I've seen them in FL a few times, but always at a distance Except the one time that I watched one snag a duck from a lake. It was a juvenile, and swooped 3 times then snagged the duck out of the water. It stood on the duck holding it down on the shore for a min or two occasionally adjusting it's grip, and then flew off with the duck like it was nothing. Amazing birds!
