The pair of Red-shouldered hawks that have nested in the nature area behind our home in Chanhassen for many years have once again successfully fledged a juvenile hawk. The young one has been very entertaining, tipping over a feeder tray while trying to land on it, perching on the ground below our feeders in the midst of feeding squirrels and rabbits, who completely ignore the young hawk and go about their business as the hawk watches intently. Between the young one constantly calling , it's parents constantly calling back from a distance, and the Blue Jay mimics, it sounds like we have dozens of RS Hawks calling at times from the woods. I was awakened this morning by the young one screaming outside our bedroom window
