"She was a common black hawk. He was a red-shouldered hawk. They weren’t
in the same genus, let alone the same species, and they normally don’t
even live in the same part of the continent. But in a strange twist of
fate, none of that mattered: It was love at first screech.
Researchers have discovered that two hawks from surprisingly distant
perches on the tree of life have mated, resulting in rare hybrid chicks."
