Juvenile Red-Shouldered Hawk on Corralitas

Yesterday, I watched mockingbirds, sparrows and little brown birds with black pointy heads harassing a young hawk. The construction site below has been silent for months. The hawk was comfortable just hanging out on the telephone pole, while the little birds took turns screaming at him.
