X-rated Mating Season Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo linatus)

We do not usually see two Red-shouldered Hawks perched together on the same snag at Viera Wetlands. It was capturing images of the two when one of them took off. I continued working with the single Hawk when the second one returned. Caught a nice sequence of mating and I think this is a good example of the series.
