Buteo swainsoni
I believe mate to my previous spotting (http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/495... )...both were being harassed by a Kingbird who didn't like them where they were!
Agricultural plains with pockets of old-growth trees.

Incredible series!
Thanks! Definitely was...putting up with us and the kingbird and all!! The sun was perfect too...we have to get out a little earlier next time! ;-)
I love the last picture too! This bird was a character!
Thanks, all! Searra, someone told me recently they watched a Red-Tail sit and let the little birds fly around its head...then it snached one out of the air for a snack! Don't know if they do that a lot but it's definitely a possibility! ;-)
Great series Christy!
What a gorgeous bird! Absolutely loving the last pic (that little head tilt) ^_^
