The Swainson’s hawks that nest near our home in Prescott, Az have returned from their winter migration to Argentina. I first saw them on Monday, right after Easter. A symbol of spring to me. Today I had my camera and shot some photos of one of the hawks in aerial combat with a raven. Raven often harass hawks. These photos are not great as the birds where pretty far from me. Click on the images for a larger view.
