Check out Linny, our Red Shouldered Hawk.



These raptors can be found (and heard) throughout eastern North America, sporting their reddish-orange plumage and loud distinctive call. Their primary habitat is forested areas, and they can often be seen perched high in trees, scanning for prey of small mammals, birds, and amphibians.
