On my way into work today I spotted a Red-shouldered Hawk in Woodbury 
hanging out on a power line. Luckily I keep my binos in my car and was 
able to watch it for awhile. It was getting dive bombed by barn swallows 
and so after it flew down into the ditch and must have gotten something, 
as it didn't come up for a few minutes. It eventually came out and just 
went back onto the power line. It was kind of cool as this is the only 
the second time I have seen one and the first wasn't too far from this 
area. To be more specific about its location, it was on Military Rd just 
west of the intersection with Woodlane Dr on the north side of the road.
Happy Birding.
