Return of the White Hawk
Last winter we observed a white hawk, actually a leucistic red-tailed hawk, on Rutgers Busch campus. Mike spotted him again while driving to work about a week ago. We've both been on the lookout when driving in the area. Today since the weather was nice and we wanted to get outside, we did a drive by of the area and found him. We parked and were able to watch him from a distance for a while. We also wandered around the area after he flew away but didn't get any pictures of the few birds we found.

I would love to see this beautiful raptor
I saw him last year and saw him again today while out walking my dog near Johnson Park. I get so excited every time I see him!
I saw him a few times in the past week on Busch campus. I typed into "White Hawk New Jersey" into Google, and I was shocked when the exact bird came up! I got a glimpse of a white hawk last year, but I pasted it off as a trick of the eyes. This is a very cool bird.
That's neat. We left NJ 9 months ago but I'm glad white hawk is still returning
