Mush 7 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Hello, Today I saw this extra pale looking red-tailed hawk in Central Florida. Is it a Krider's? The thing that is throwing me off is the belly-band, which kirder's usually lack. It kind of looks like a juvenile borealis too. Sorry for quality, it was taking before sunrise.

Tony Leukering 2,531 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I think that this bird looks fine for the pale end of Eastern and not pale enough for Krider's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
