My husband and I checked it out and found a completely intact, unmarked adult Red-tailed Hawk. At the director's request we moved the body to a more discreet location nearby. Very intriguing death, looks like it just fell of its perch.

The death could have been brought out by virtually any thing. I was walking my dog one morning and she started sniffing under spruce with low branches. I could see the tip of a blue feather. I reached in and pulled out an adult female goshawk. Aside from being dead, she was in perfect condition. She had good meat on her breast so she did not seem to be starving. Without an ecropsy by knowledgable vet we are just. Guessing.
