Hawk Mother: The Story of a Red-Tailed Hawk Who Hatched Chickens

by Kara Hagedorn

Sunshine, a red-tailed hawk, can no longer fly free. But her instinct to be a mother is so strong that she builds a nest every spring and lays two infertile eggs. One year, Kara, her caretaker, decides to try something different. She gives Sunshine two chicken eggs. Even though hawks normally eat chickens, Sunshine raises the chicks as if they were her own. Join zoologist, Kara Hagedorn and Sunshine to find out what happens in this heartwarming story of interspecies cooperation.
