[SBB] Red-Shouldered Hawk Nest in Menlo Park

[Ron Wolf <[[email protected]]>]

I stopped by the nest of Red-Shouldered Hawks in the Sharon Park
neighborhood of Menlo Park. (In a eucalyptus just inside the park
along Klamath, about 60-70 yards uphill from Sharon Park Dr.)

The two chicks are nearly fully grown. One is now making short,
unsteady flights to a couple of adjacent trees. The other one,
presumably younger, is still perching on branches within a few
feet of the nest, occasionally flapping its wings. The adults
deliver food every hour or so. It looks like these chicks may
not be there much longer.

I just returned from a long weekend photographing woodpeckers
and lots of other critters at Yuba Pass and Sierra Valley. If
anyone who is heading up there wants more information, contact
me off list. Many pix at:
