Spartacus the Hawk

Hannah interacts with Spartacus, the Red-tailed hawk that she helped to rescue.

A gentleman phoned Wild Bird Rescue to say that he had watched for two weeks as a healthy hawk brought food to an injured hawk on the ground. 

Spartacus displays one red tail feather, which, Hannah explains, shows his age, one year.

Spartacus joins an impressive group of wild birds who serve as educational ambassadors that teach the community about wildlife and wild life issues. Please donate to Wild Bird Rescue.

And here is the wheel viewed through a filter upon which I dabbed a bit of petroleum jelly.
