A mystery to me anyway. Two months ago to the day a big bird landed high up on the pictured tree, which sits just past the southwest corner of our property in the out-of-bounds area of the 9th fairway. I raced to get our camera and replace the wide-angle lens with the telescopic lens. Fortunately, the bird was patient, allowing me time to take a series of photos, though I didn’t dare get closer and risk scaring him (her?) off.

You can see the bird better in the second photo, below. Can you identify her?
