This juvenille Gray Hawk was along the River Ramble Trail at the Hassayampa River Preserve on May 21st, 2010. Gray Hawks are a rarity in the area and have nested at Hassayampa for several years in a row.
I photographed this beautiful adult Gray Hawk at Pena Blanca Lake in southern Arizona, in Santa Cruz County...

More from the Wickenburg area, which has had an increase of Gray Hawks in drastic measure..
