I heard it before I saw it, that distinctive high, descending "ke-ee-er."
So I knew I was looking for my friend, the red-tail hawk.
It was a little too far away to catch anything except the silhouette, but here's the fun part. Soon, the hawk was joined by a second one. They were not fighting, or diving at each other, so I'm thinking it was a pair. They mate for life.
I managed to get them in the same picture!

A couple may also fight, as in our world.
How cool is that. Nice capture. I know that sound and love to watch these creatures in action.
It's pretty cool that you got them together!
I had no idea they mated for life. WTG on getting both of them in one shot!!
Happy day!
Jackie:-)
Very cool!
Very cool!
I love watching hawks. I see them quite often around here although I'm not quite sure which kind they are.
i love watching hawks, and other birds, though oftentimes i am confused in identifying them :)
rainfield- True enough!
Chuck- I've never seen both of them together here
rosey- yes, that is the neat part of this sighting for me
Jackie- Actually, I didn't know that either, but I was trying to find out what time of year they mate. Didn't learn that, but it can't be quite yet or the chicks would be hatched in winter.
Vanilla- yes it is, yes it is!
Ann- I know a few of them. The red tails are easy.
betchai- I'm trying to sort some of them out, but the red tails are easy.
Great sighting of the two hawks. I have a hard time capturing birds in flight. But, it is still fun trying. Great photos.
