On Wednesday this red-shouldered hawk paid a visit to Albert's work.

It landed on a lamp post over the RW garage and called.

It leapt into the air.

Swooped down.

Across in front of my window.

Up past windows next door.

It had to struggle a little to gain altitude, in order to...

Land on the roof of RA.

After a minute or two there it took off again.

Flew by and moved on.
I did hear it calling again later.
