Ferruginous Hawk - Consul, SK We were very lucky to great up close and personal with the largest hawk in North America. These beautiful pale birds are found on the grass lands of the continent eating just about everything that moves with gophers being a favorite. This bird was just settling down on the fence post outside of Consul Saskatchewan when we saw him. Michael W Klotz 2019 - www.TheBirdBlogger.comPicture

American Avocet - Consul, SK These unusual waders are very specialized feeders. The American Avocet collects it's food by waving their peculiarly shaped bill side to side along the water's surface collecting insects and other critters that might be happen to touch the sensitive beak. There is only one species of Avocet in North America but they do have counter parts in South America, Europe, Africa and Australia. Michael W Klotz 2019 - www.TheBirdBlogger.com
