AlexHenry Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Probably Short-tailed? Tough to rule out other dark buteos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Leukering Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 It's certainly not a Swainson's or a Red-tailed. Besides, Broad-winged is the only beast that is very similar to Short-tailed, and dark morphs are very, very rare in FL, particularly in December. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avery Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Why isn’t it a red-tail? I’m just wondering, since all dark morphs look the same to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I looked up a picture of one in flight on the internet. This one showed up... It looks pretty similar. Especially in wing pattern. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
