Was out to look for eagles when spotted two red-tailed hawks hovering beside the Orchard Road railroad overpass just north of Mill.  Winds were high, and the hawks were able to effortlessly hover in the same position looking for mice in the grass of the bridge embankment. Parked at the park n ride and climbed the embankment to cross the bridge.

Took pics of one hawk hovering (see extra), and then followed it back over the bridge where it settled down in a pine tree (main blip).

Later at Saw Wee Kee Park I heard a crow's warning call.  You need to pay attention when hearing a bird's warning, and glancing up saw another red-tailed hawk gliding in looking for squirrels/birds at the bird feeding tree. This hawk came in just above me (see extra), landing higher in the tree.

Could not get near an eagle on this day, and could not get much closer to red-tailed hawks.
