Couple more birds of the year

Bluebirds are all over right now, but I had trouble getting a good picture of one. They seem to be noisily advertising for mates or staking out territory.

Also noisy right how--Red-shouldered Hawk--but this one sat quietly on the power line for a long time.  I wanted to go out and dump the compost, but I didn't want to interrupt his musings. So I waited--that's how I know it was a long time.
