Kittipaws Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 S. WI yesterday. This bird was so high up I’m surprised I even spotted it. All I’m really sure of is it’s not a vulture. I wouldn’t expect positive identification but any guess would be appreciated. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Leukering Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I thought from the title that we were gonna have a speck to ID; that would have been enjoyable. The shape of this bird is also very distinctive, and you could triple or quadruple the bird's height and experienced and skilled hawkwatchers would still be able to nail it with ease.
