Mystery Solved

Today a big grey bird chased all the little birds out of three yard area. I couldn't get to my camera fast enough. And I could only get the back view but Michael and I did a little research and found out that it is a Northern Harrier Hawk...commonly known as a Marsh Hawk. Now what a marsh hawk is doing in my backyard I do not know. Maybe if we were still in WI I might be able to understand it, but not in flat, barren, dry OH. Just thought you would like to know!

We always see a hawk in this one certain place on the road from our house to the highway.

Do you know how to get rid of that anonymous comment?
