sbruenjes Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I saw these birds today at a park in Northern New Jersey. I don't remember if pics 2 & 3 are the same bird... I believe the first 3 are red-tailed hawks, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbvol50 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Not sure about 2 but rest are red-tails 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avery Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 2 is a red-tail. Only other buteos around now would be a late red shouldered, or an early roughie in New Jersey. No commas, and no panel in je wings, leaving red tail. Also, I saw roughies and red tail today in their gliding stance, and 2 looks exactly like the red tails. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birding Boy Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Agreed, all Red-Tailed Hawks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Leukering Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 2 hours ago, Avery said: late red shouldered Red-shouldered Hawk winters throughout New Jersey. The species is, in fact, a permanent resident. Additionally, the species is a relatively late fall migrant, and some are still southbound, though most of those are adults. #2 is a Red-shouldered 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
