The last BirdingPI.com “Hot Shots! Part Deux” reference was almost a year ago to the day. Must be a “January in Erie can’t get outside because it’s too cold” thing. Anyway, 10 cm of snow or thereabouts by Friday morning, light snow all day, back to seasonably cold temperatures. Saturday, no precipitation, overcast and very cold.
Here, some recent, ‘merely ok’ shots of Red-tailed Hawk in Erie County. Above: Millcreek Twp (“Gateway to Presque Isle”); below: Presque Isle State Park by the Pine Tree Trail east trailhead and nearby swamp.
Supposed to be sunny and not as cold Sunday and Monday – fingers crossed for good bird photography weather!
