Red-tailed Hawks (Buteo jamaicensis) are an extremely abundant and adaptable raptor species that inhabit a wide range across North America. Their ability to persist in areas of intensive agricultural practices makes them an ideal raptor species to study in south-central Nebraska, USA. I studied Red-tailed Hawks using roadside raptor surveys and GPS transmitter location data. I determined habitats of high-use by Red-tailed Hawk had taller vegetation during the winter and fall, while low-use sites in the summer had denser vegetation. This suggests that Red-tailed Hawks prefer hunting in habitat with higher vegetation, but select against habitat where the vegetation is too dense and obstructs their view. GPS transmitter location data reported breeding Red-tailed Hawks have the smallest breeding season home range, followed by nonbreeders with a single territory, and nonbreeders with multiple territories reported the largest home ranges. The presence of both resident and migratory nonbreeders suggests multiple life history strategies for nonbreeding raptors in an attempt to acquire both resources and a successful breeding habitat. Last, by combining GPS location data with roadside raptor survey data, we were able to speculate that increased Red-tailed Hawk sightings in the winter evenings could be explained by GPS transmitter-tracked Red-tailed Hawks' decreased presence in canopy cover and increased movement during the evenings. These findings have significant implications for future management of Red-tailed Hawks and the methodology of integrating both observational and GPS location data.
