We happened upon these two hawks recently in the Mussel Point area. I suspect they are a bonded pair because as one was devouring prey, the other seemed to keep watch as opposed to attempting to take it away. Just theory, of course but it’s a little unusual in my experience to have two hawks in such close proximity as one feasts and the other is on alert. It was an interesting story developing but we couldn’t stay to watch it unfold to its completion. Nature provides the most interesting tales.
