The Red-tailed Hawk is not nocturnal. They hunt during the day, and are active during the early hours of dawn, and twilight. The Red-tailed Hawk does on occasion run into the Great Horned Owl during the late twilight hours, as they share the same type of prey. But for the most part, the Red-tailed Hawk isn't active once it is dark. For more details, please see the sites listed below.
