Saul Panzer Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Taken two days ago in Rochester MN: Hawk by Fred Durkin, on Flickr Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Tiff Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I think Rough-legged Hawk, due to tail length, long white feathers near the rear, and beak length. I could be wrong though, wait for another confirmation. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bird Nuts Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 It's too bulky for a Rough-legged among other subtle differences which are difficult for me to explain. This is a young Red-tailed Hawk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvoryBillHope Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Red-tailed seconded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Friedman Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If I'm not mistaken, the white on the scapulars and the light brown tail with narrow, even dark bars are also good for Red-tailed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
