Species Account:
Observed in very large catalpa tree in my backyard (tree is more than two stories high and the leaves are huge. Other birds of prey have been seen in this tree; maybe they like the big leaves for privacy?) Binoculars let me identify him or her easily. He was just resting. No food visible. This location is the communal "backyard" of four houses behind 2031 S Springbrook Lane, Boise 83706. We are just a few blocks from the Boise river.
