Broad-Winged Hawk and other things

Perch and search..................Looking for prey along the roadside.
First to the left,  

then right and spots something.

Swoops down but just at that moment a car came along and we didn't get to see the strike (or miss)

update: Baby Beaver.       Now swimming alone without mother



Tried my hand at hatching Monarchs. Last  2 of 3.
still inside the jar. beginning the wing drying/stiffening

ditto

before wings fully ready for flight I assisted by placing on leaf(s) outdoors

Distant relative:

in the wild, no help from me.
