Buteo jamaicensis
Red-tailed Hawk Buteo jamaicensis Raptor Fledglings
Nottoway River 36.7409, -77.1093
Beautiful shot. I think they might be red-shouldered hawks. Red-shoulders have a yellower cere than the tails do, and their eyes are darker brown at that age.
Please consider adding this spotting to the Animal Architecture mission at http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8082...
Not sure about that Team Brinez 1 .... I had to get out of my boat and hike in about 200 yrds to get this shot... almost every Osprey nest I have ever encountered has been on the water or pretty dang close... I guess it's possible...
