Red Tailed Hawk at Pine Needles-Mid Pines

The Hawk

It seems that Pine Needles draws attention to more than just Golfers. 
Anyone interested in playing golf with this critter?


Have you seen this Red Tailed Hawk around the course?
Red Tailed Hawks are the most common types of Hawk in North America. 
Even though this bird seems big, it only weighs in at about 3 pounds. 


Did you know that Hawks enjoy wide open spaces? 
Maybe this is why this Hawk has enjoyed spending time at Pine Needles


Red Tail Hawks are not dangerous to humans. 
Let's just hope they do not mistake your golf ball for a snack and fly away with it!
