Baby Hawk

This bird was found at my brothers house the other day. We know the parents live in one of the taller trees in the yard, but this little guy must have fallen out of the nest, becasue now it is hanging out in the front yard just walking around. I think it has made a make-shift house under some bushes, but the little thing can not yet fly. We know that it is a hawk, but we are not positive on which kind it is. Based on pics I have seen, it may be a red-tailed hawk. Either way, to get this close to a hawk is really rare. If you are wondering how it eats like I was, you may notice the meat under it's claws in this pic. The mother caught and killed a squirel and gave it to the baby. You have to love wildlife!!
