Hawk or Eagle


Recommended Posts

I agree that it's not a raven of any sort. I cannot see this bird being a Turkey Vulture, either. I don't agree that flapping rules out Golden Eagle. They regularly travel long distances in flapping flight. They cross Lake Superior at Whitefish Point doing it -- shortest crossing = 13 miles.

Of course, the flapping flight of Turkey Vulture, Golden Eagle, and Common Raven are all utterly different from each other, such that, with extensive experience, one can differentiate amongst them with ease. Video would have been much more useful here.

I vote for "diurnal raptor sp."
