raptor glance

[Susan Guare]

We got the kids out for a walk between the raindrops at my school today.  The school is located in a repurposed military base in Bangor, with a broad soccer field behind it and woods beyond that.  We'd been outside for just minutes and I spotted a probable Cooper's hawk that disappeared into the woods, and a soaring Red-tail that circled away from view and toward the Bangor airport.  Not bad for a five-minute break outdoors.
