Pair of Redtailed Hawks...

A couple shots from the other day; first is zoomed out, (but medium tele focal length, unfortunately), and 2nd pic is cropped to the hilt: thus pixelated.

A big old dead white oak down the slope from our deck view, is often a perch for raptors all season. These 2 look like a paired up Redtail hawk fam. They show up almost every morning for a while to survey the valley.

The background gives some sense of the altitude and the distance down to the next lower ridge.
Thanks for looking...
