Red-tail Hawks call Barksdale home

Eyes fixed on the ground; a Red-tailed Hawk is oblivious to the nearby Airman as it tries to catch the movements of its next meal in front of the 307th Bomb Wing headquarters building on Barksdale Air Force Base, La., April 17, 2014. The Red-tailed Hawk has a thrilling scream that Hollywood directors seem to like. Whenever a hawk or eagle appears onscreen, the sound bite for the movie is almost always that of a Red-tailed Hawk.
