Buteo jamaicensis
This red tailed hawk had just swept off a Hermit Thrush foraging in the open space.
Thnx Ashley! i would have never known. Will separate them soon!!
The feathers belong to a red-shafter flicker and should be in their own spotting :)http://www.fws.gov/lab/featheratlas/feat...http://www.fws.gov/lab/featheratlas/feat...
Very nice series - did it lose the feathers in the tussle with the thrush? And the thrush got away?
uploaded a few feathers from it's tail and body.
It dropped a few feathers below the tree. Brilliant orange!!
