Hi all,
Apologies for the delay in sending this note out. We saw a Zone-tailed Hawk on
Aug. 21 while doing our butterfly survey in Boerne at Cibolo Nature Center! I
was keeping an eye on a suspicious vulture-looking bird off and on over the
Prairie at a distance. Close to 9:30 am, a Zone-tailed Hawk flew right over
our heads giving us a great look! I did see a Zone-tailed there in 2011 on
July 26th, so we try to look closely at everything flying. We were out again
last week, but didn't spot it. Lora, thanks for your post and nice photos
yesterday! I wonder if it's the same bird.
