Yesterday afternoon my mom and I were out birding in our back woods when we 
spotted a large nest about 65 feet up in a pine tree.  
We thought it was a hawk's nest but couldn't confirm it.  This evening we were 
out again and after 20 minutes of looking, we finally saw
a chick stand up and stretch it's wings.  A few minutes later we could see 
another chick as well.  From another angle we could barely 
make out the head of an adult hawk.  Finally, another adult flew close and 
called.  Definately a Red-tailed!!!!!!!!  The chicks are fluffy white
and very cute.  We'll keep checking, maybe there are more than two chicks.
