Skreee!

There are a pair of redtail hawks who live around my work building. The tower's 15 stories tall, and between it, the Promenade shopping center and other high office buildings in the area there are some great clifflike perches and wind currents. I'm always hoping to get a look at one from inside the office while it's perching on the building

Redtails are still my favorite raptors, and thankfully very common. A close second? Kestrels.

Whenever anyone says raptors in this context, I cannot help thinking of dinosaurs screeching through the air with crudely constructed wings strapped to their arms.
