Night Hawks

This morning's wildlife report.

  Night hawks on the nearby tree branches.  A doe on the road.  Rooster pheasant in the field.  A coyote in another field.  Two Redtailed Hawks on successive power poles.  A harrier flying low over the mowed hay.  Six turkey vultures sitting on a fence along the gravel road into the ranch.  Because of our evening program, these are one of our favorite birds.  Later this morning several dozen white pelican circled overhead searching for thermals.  They are always fun to watch.
