Our Red-tailed Hawk is evidently a very deep sleeper. Watch this video as my husband opens the giant hood (her crate) and tries to wake her up – slowly and carefully. He doesn’t want to startle her – there’s nothing worse than a grumpy hawk!

After much prodding and poking, she finally wakes up and then glares at me – I didn’t do anything, I’m just the camera person!
