raptor imprint

A raptor left this lovely imprint in the snow this morning - it must have caught a mourning dove or something similar.

Good eye. When you said raptor my first thought was of prehistoric dinosaurs.lol

Probably a red tail or Cooper's hawk. I don't think the imprint was large enough for a bald eagle.

I found a big pile of feathers in my backyard which was all that was left of a mourning dove. I suspect a hawk also.

I guess you're not seeing much snow down in AZ? Although it's been pretty cold further south, in FL...

Nope, just a few powdered sugar type dustings.
