The Standoff

Red-shouldered Hawk;
Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, Georgia, USA, MAY 2025

We had the opportunity to visit one of our favorite spots: the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. While there we got to see a very interesting event. About 2 feet above the Hawk’s head is the Squirrel’s nest. The squirrel was about 15 feet away in another tree running around like crazy trying to distract the hawk.
