I still do not know what kind of bird it was. The rehabber drove over later yesterday evening and picked it up. She said she wasn't sure either as it had some features that did not match either species. I have never been up close to either so I can only guess. She was going to take it to Somerset, Ky to a rehabber there who specializes in raptors. The rehabber is also a teacher at the high school and they have a raptor club and a very large rehab program for raptors. I'd love to see it sometime. Any way, the bird is safe now nd should do well with more knowledgable keepers. I am glad i did what I could. Added a chapter to my adventurous life. :)

This was the tail. The rehabber said it should not have had stripes?
