[What Hawk?]

Taken on 4-1-2022 in Glenoaks Canyon, Glendale, CA.

This hawk was flying with around with two Red-tailed Hawks for a few minutes.  I think it might be a dark-morph Red-tailed, but I'm not sure.

Great!  Where did you find it?

Where did you get it? They’re a tough bird here in SoCal.

Really awesome -- and they're all in focus!  Great job.  What are the birds in the background?  Or is that pumice from an erupting volcano?

Never seen one

Me neither.  And I had a busy week last week and missed the Osprey.  You all posted lots of great photos though.

I missed last week's quiz, but I'm ready for the next one.

I just saw a Zone-tailed Hawk for the first time, and it was right over my house in Glendale, CA.

Could you circle it? I’m in no way sure what birds you are referring to ?In any case it’s likely a scaup

Not sure which one you’re talking about… but the main two species are Greater and Lesser Scaup with a few of another species mixed in. 

Catamaran about 15% from right edge, and just below the mid-line.

If you click the link you should be able to zoom in with better resolution.

That's better, but the best I can say is that I think they are ducks.

I see one that looks like a catamaran -- what is that?

3 species in this one, at least. Definitely tell me if you find 4!

I can't even identify one species in that tiny image.
