sbruenjes Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I saw these birds today at a nature preserve in Montclair, New Jersey. I'm hoping maybe the first is a sharp-shinned hawk. I've never photographed any owl before, but the other has to be a great horned owl, right? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bird Nuts Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Agreed. Sharpies have pale eyes and lack the dark stripe on the cheek. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Leukering Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Falcons have long wings, with even the relatively short-winged Merlin having wing tips extending well down the tail. Accipiter wing tips barely reach out onto the tail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
