Mating Red Tailed Hawks??

Hi, I'm not a serious birder so I'm guessing at the type of Hawk and what they are up to.

Also I'm guessing at the sex of each based on the activity, ha ha.

If I'm wrong please correct me, thanks.

I was looking for birds in and around Milton and saw the female from a distance at the top of a dead tree.

As I approached the male flew into view and I captured the following scene.

Thanks Mr P for sending these pictures to us - you were in the right place at the right time!
