Rough-legged Hawk Photos

Rough-legged Hawks are a species that is easy to take for granted here, as in winter, there are areas and times where they are...everywhere. As in, days where I've seen >100 in one day, when poking around the grasslands of the central part of the state. Beautiful birds though with a nice variety of plumages.
