Learn the CALLS and SOUNDS of a Red-shouldered Hawk! These beautiful raptors are very vocal every spring. They are so loud that most people hear them before seeing them.

Red-shouldered Hawks (Buteo lineatus) are fairly easy to identify by sound. Listen for a LOUD “kee-ahh,” with the second note descending in pitch.
The “kee-aah” call is often repeated. It is very loud and can be heard from many miles away.
Red-shouldered Hawks are most often heard between April and June during the breeding season. They use their calls to attract females and defend territory.
These raptors are common in the eastern half of North America. Interestingly, there is also a population that lives on the west coast.
Distinctly marked, Red-shouldered Hawks have a barred rufous chest, mostly white underwings, a strongly banded tail, and of course, red shoulders that are visible when perched.
Red-shouldered Hawks are primarily forest dwellers. These raptors are common in suburban areas where houses have been mixed into woodlands.
Length: 15-19 inches / 38-48 cm
Weight: 1.1-1.9 lbs. / 500-860 gm
Wingspan: 38-42 inches / 96-107 cm

We had a family of Red Shoulders in a Sycamore tree in Alpine,CA. One season, they had 2 chick's and fed both of them. They were awesome parents. I watched them fledge and I hope both survived. A memory I will never forget.

Keep in mind that bluejays are master impersonators of raptors. I constantly hear them mimic red shouldered hawks, Cooper's Hawks, and recently I've heard them as Mississippi Kites! If you hear a red shouldered hawk call coming from a tree and don't see a large bird, chances are it's a bluejay!

I live in Tennessee, in the foothills near the edge of the Cherokee National Forest. I hear these quite frequently, but I’ve never seen one until today! It was in a field at the edge of the woods, bent down drinking from a small marshy stream in the grass. It was beautiful, and definitely the highlight of my day!

I just watched two males fighting on the hillside behind my house. This helped me identify them because of their high pitched cries. I live in a coastal town within Los Angeles, CA. We have several types of hawks but these were smaller than what I typically see so I wasn’t entirely sure. Thanks for the video!

We live just south of Tampa, Florida, less than 5 miles from the Alafia River and Tampa Bay. We're in the middle of 6+ acres of woodlands with many mature oak trees and a variety of others, including pines and palms. We hear these beauties literally daily, especially this time of year, and see them often in our backyard, occasionally with fresh prey in their clutches. They are almost as common as the Spanish moss ithat hangs off the oak trees. They are truly magnificent creatures, and we love that they have chosen to seek refuge here from all the (what we consider to be) overdevelopment of land. We would love to purchase surrounding properties and make it a nature preserve that could never be cleared to build another strip mall, apartment building, etc. These guys and many other wonderful species are running out of places to live, and that makes us both sad and angry.

We live in Southern California on the edge of the city/open space and have MANY red shouldered (and red tailed) hawks due to the large ground squirrel population (they are a PAIN). Only today we had a hawk in our yard standing over a dead squirrel. We love to see them and hear their calls most days. 2 years ago our neighbors had a family of 5 nesting in their yard and teaching the young to hunt etc. What a treat that was. Thanks for the video

We are lucky enough to have a pair of red shouldered hawks nesting nearby. We have been watching them for months. One day , one of the hawks sat on a low tree limb to watch us.

I have had a hawk hanging around here for a few years now, but have never been able to see it close enough or hear it’s call to be able to identify the type of hawk. After watching and listening to this- AND the fact it flew out of my very large magnolia tree in my backyard yesterday, I can definitively say it was a red-shouldered hawk. It was truly magnificent to see and finally be able to properly identify it!!

I live in Louisville, KY and am visited by one and possibly two red shouldered hawks about 3 to 4 times a week soaring over my backyard and through the subdivision. We live near forested area named the parklands of Louisville that also has a large creek named Floyds Fork running right through it. I have a one year old and 10 week old pug puppies that I let out in the morning in my backyard around 7:00 to 8:00 am when I usually see the hawks. So I walk with them to protect them as my smallest puppy is only 7 pounds. One morning as I was walking with the puppies the hawk actually flew about 30 feet right over my head. I always go out into the yard when I let them out. I only see the hawks in the morning but occasionally hear calls in the afternoon. So it must be nesting somewhere near by. We have so many trees and houses that I only get about 3 to 4 seconds of seeing them before there gone. Love seeing them soaring overhead!

Had one in our backyard in Texas that tried to grow up too fast. He was on our metal fence so I put a welding glove on and carried it to a low branch in a tree. He left the next morning after a peaceful night's sleep. He's still getting the hang of flying so as I watch him do that I stumbled on this video. I'm using the recordings to keep tabs on where he is because he answers the calls. He looks quite magnificent in flight. I think he'll do just fine.

I live in south central Texas ... about an hour south of Austin. We have a few red tailed hawks around here but a couple of days ago, I heard this almost consist call of a hawk I hadn't heard before. The calls were similar to those of a blue jay but a bit less raucous. I kept searching for the source of this and finally saw a small hawk circling around the backyard. He finally landed on our back fence. A large tree shaded where he was and it was hard to make out any markings on him. He just looked like a brown shape ... a bit larger than a mourning dove. It took me a while, but your video helped me identify him as a red shoulder hawk by his call. Lately development has been tearing up what once were ranches around here and likely disturbing the territory of these amazing birds. This has meant more squirrels in my backyard along with more mourning doves ... likely a tasty meal for any hawk.
