I have been experiencing a lot of raptor activity lately. I have heard a lot of screeching from hawks high in the sky overhead. We have hawks that hang out in the back fields. The last couple of days I have seen a hawk buzzing the fields no more than 4-5 feet off the ground. I don't remember seeing that before. I am hearing a lot of owls. I hear them at night, but I have heard them the last two mornings after sunrise which is unusual.
I'm wondering what this means. Songbirds and woodpeckers are much more vocal in the spring. I think they are looking for mates, and marking off their territory. What is going on with the raptors? Are they marking off territory, getting ready for migration? Doug/Kim?
