Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WingsOpenNotFlying, birds with their wings open when not flying and this young #RedTailedHawk is just about considering to take flight. Catching a bird right before lift off is always a fun one!

Eight daggers, spring-loaded! A Red-tailed Hawk’s talons close with around 200 pounds of pressure per square inch, and a tendon-locking mechanism in their foot keeps them clamped.
