Am I.... a prophet?

Red-shouldered Hawk! Very much an oddball bird here, considering habitat. They just don't come here. They're common in forests (mainly riparian) but anywhere else in my area they're basically nonexistent. Kind of cool to see.

It definitely wasn't large enough to be a Ferruginous. Probably a Red-tail. Thank you!

Not by me. That's why I asked. I'm sure there's some things about this bird that I'm missing that more experienced birders would pick up on.

Yeah, that's what I figured. Roughie?

This time in northwest Montana. I saw a bird that I originally called a Goshawk in the field, but now I'm pretty sure it's not. Thoughts?

Not good ones at all, but I did get some. I'll tag you in the lifers thread later today.

Woohoo, LIFER! Thanks guys!!

That would be a pretty awesome lifer...

That would explain him being all fluffed up like that. It was cold, quite obviously... But I still can't get over how big it looked/looks. That is a large bird.
