A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Buteo jamaicensis
you are welcome,zapabio. When in doubt ,you can always check with Liam or you can also put it up on Bird Forum.
KimLomman - I added another photo, and now I think it could be a Red-shouldered Hawk, what do you think?
This one is difficult. So far I'm thinking either a Swainson's Hawk (Buteo swainsoni) or a juvenile dark morph Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis calurus).
