I have noticed that for the past 4 - 5 years there are sightings of a
leucistic Red-tailed Hawk in this area of the National Park.  I posted a
picture of one several years ago, that's why I notice these postings.  I
always wonder if it is the same individual?  Gives me something to think
about!

Good Birding,

Subject: [Ohio-birds] "Pinktail" Hawk at CVNP...

I was down in the National Park today and while driving Riverview Road,
between Everett Road and the railroad crossing I saw an all, or nearly, all
white raptor sitting in a tree in the woods.  Views would have been better
if it was a safer place to stop the car and if it wasn't raining.  I am
pretty confident it was an albino, or leucistic, Redtail Hawk.

On a less interesting bird note, the beaver pond at Ira is filled mostly
with Black Ducks.
