Red-tailed Hawk: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, February 2026 — Red-tails live in Maine year-round, and are especially visible during February, as here in Southern Maine we have a mix of resident and short-distance migrant birds…normally. It depends totally on snow cover, and we have a good amount of snow this winter. This bird was hunting the exposed marsh along a tidal creek where it joins the river. It was, relatively speaking, a long way off, and I used the Sony a7CR and Tamron 150-500 at 500mm with a heavy crop…to maybe close to 1500mm equivalent field of view…with resolution enhancement in Photomator in processing. Program with bird and wildlife modifications.
