Description
Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) nicely camouflaged in habitat, Big Morongo Canyon Preserve, San Bernardino County, California.
I simply ♥ birds in habitat !!!
The Big Morongo Canyon Preserve is nestled among California's Little San Bernardino Mountains, and is one of the 10 largest cottonwood and willow riparian (stream) habitats in the state. The upstream end of the canyon lies in the Mojave Desert, while its downstream portion opens into the Colorado Desert. The Morongo fault running through the canyon causes water draining from the surrounding mountains to form Big Morongo Creek and the marsh habitat.
At 31,000 acres with elevations ranging from 600 feet on the canyon floor to 3000 feet at the top of the ridge, the diverse landscape has been an important part of the Morongo Basin's natural and cultural history for almost two billion years. In 1982 the Bureau of Land Management designated BMCP as an Area of Critical Environment Concern.

Nice shot of this Red-tailed Hawk in Big Morongo Canyon Preserve. Love the way it vanishes in the background, but then the branch picks up your sight and leads you to the raptor. Very cool.
