The red tailed hawk family I've been watching had a tragedy. One of the babies was killed when he tried to fly over a busy street and fell into traffic. He was found with a rat in his talons (possibly his first kill).

The other two babies are thriving, and enjoyed a food fight this morning. A photographer documented the event here:
