- We did it! The 50th Episode of Learn a Bird has dropped...and it's a CLASSIC BIRD for North Americans....the Red-Tailed Hawk (cue screeching cry and circling bird in blue sky)
..
While most of us were misled by TV producers to believe that the typical call of the Red-Tailed Hawk belonged to an eagle, you now know better, folks.
..
The birds in today's episode are making the OTHER Red-Tailed Hawk sound - a repetitive, sometimes called "annoying" call made juveniles who've fledged the nest, but still aren't too capable when it comes to filling their bellies - yes, these are begging calls.
..
So...watch, listen and learn about North America's most widespread and visible bird of prey - the Red Tailed Hawk!
I’m only commenting to boost this in the YT algorithm.
Thanks again for your content!
Thanks, Man.....wise move :)
Beautiful birds. Unfortunately i never see these when birding on a hike in the woods...exclusively when driving my car! Congrats on making it to 50 of these...i really enjoy them
Thank you! And, if you don't mind, pls share/spread the word about my channel. I'm hoping to reach 5000 subscribers by Sunday midnight ⚡
We have a red-tailed hawk family in our area, and have for well over a decade. LOVE hearing and seeing them! The other day I heard so much calling back and forth, wondered what was going on, could one be in trouble? But from this video I learned that it’s normal communication between 2 juveniles. LOVE “Learn a Bird!”
Thank you...I'm glad you're.loving the videos and that you've got some local red tails! If you don't mind sharing my page/videos with others, I'd really appreciate it...I'm trying to reach 5000 subscribers by Sunday midnight ⚡
I love the hawks! I've got a family of Broad-winged hawks near my house.
lucky you!
I always think of Red-Tailed Hawks as the 'Clint Eastwood' Hawk, because recordings of their call were always the go-to "Hawk Sound" that was dubbed into movies (usually Westerns) whenever the director needed one. For me, that's most apparent in Sergio Leone's 'Dollars Trilogy' of movies starring Clint Eastwood, but the Red Tail call is the sound that most layman non-Bird people associate with a Hawk. Of course, for us birders, we know that there's no way a Red-Tailed Hawk would be in Italy, where the 'Dollars' movies were filmed, but I guess there's just something that screams "foreboding deathly desert in a Western!!" about the Red-Tailed call, so that's why it became the go-to Hawk sound 🤣🤣🤣
Whoops...just checked...'Dollars Trilogy' was filmed in Spain, but the point stands LOL 😀
Absolutely! Great example.
They have two of these near my apartment, they are everywhere, they had the exact call too.
I love hawks too but since I have hens - I’m glad to see the crows chase them away!
understandable.
