Nice one Teddy.
Red, the best thing for fire ant bites is to get the poison out using a drying agent like -- mud mask, toothpaste (preferably paste and not gel), that overnight acne spot treatment in Proactive. Works best if you do it immediately after being bitten though, so might be too late. You must have been one of those people with the primo spot when the orchard orioles showed up! Very nice photo!

My friend tells me that this is a Swainson's Hawk. Looks like a whimpy Red-tailed to me but what do I know.
