With the cold weather, many hawks have moved into the canyon. I photographed this one yesterday, and added a new hawk to my life list. How did this hawk get its name?

Answer:

This is a Rough-legged Hawk. Its name comes from the fact that its legs are covered with feathers all the way down to the feet. In North America, only Rough-legged Hawks, Ferrunginous Hawks, and Golden Eagles have fully feathered legs.
