Red-Shouldered Hawk in Corona Del Mar, CA – streetlight
According to the Cornell Lab of Orinthology:
“Red-shouldered Hawks eat mostly small mammals, lizards, snakes, and amphibians. They hunt from perches below the forest canopy or at the edge of a pond, sitting silently until they sight their prey below. Then they descend swiftly, gliding and snatching a vole or chipmunk off the forest floor. They also eat toads, snakes, and crayfish. They occasionally eat birds, sometimes from bird feeders; recorded prey include sparrows, starlings, and doves.” – https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Red-shouldered_Hawk/lifehistory
