Schaedee Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 A had three of these birds eyeing a quail that flew into my window. Are these Harris Hawks or Golden eagles? This one had a patch of white on the very top of its head. This is in the Sonoran Desert, foothills of Carefree, AZ. All three are seen flying together in the canyon next to my home.

The Bird Nuts Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 (edited) Is the prey an American Pipit? That should give an idea of size.
