The first two were taken today...the Hawk flew in and landed on the dead tree in our back yard.
#1
CLOSED: Another Unknown Hawk
Hmmm... this one put up a challenge for me but after comparing this bird with a Red-tailed Hawk I found some differences.
I,m going with Ferruginous Hawk....but I would wait for more confirmation on that.
A very pale Red-tailed. Not Ferruginous, as that has feathered legs, which pic #3 shows this one doesn't.
Resin
Red-Tailed.
I seen the feathered legs in my field guide too...lol (noted) Red-tailed was the only other choice for sure, a victim of variation. Plus I thought the beak was a little diff...I was asking for it with the range too.lol Props
Thanks everyone for all your help. I should have known it was a Red-tailed...but I am easily confused!!
