Hi, these are one of our favorites that we don’t have in the city but are abundant out on the prairie to the east. November 7, 2017 at 7:21 pm Reply
A sweet-sounding bird that I understand is in decline. 😦 A beautiful portrait you’ve captured of one, Mike. October 24, 2017 at 4:35 pm Reply
Hi Eliza nd yes like most species of birds in decline due to habitat loss. November 7, 2017 at 7:21 pm Reply
These are fun birds to watch. They hang out on open grasslands and prefer disturbed soil so we often seem them along some of the dirt roads we drive on when east of the Rockies. November 7, 2017 at 7:23 pm Reply

Beautiful bird, I’ve never seen one of these before.

What a presence it has, meaning: beware?
Indeed a serous hunting posture with those horn up.
