I would say that these 2 are the most ask about birds and their IDs are very close -what do you call them :scratch

    Well my shot at it is sharp and coop but I did get a few looks This is a position you never ever see, tails spread and wings as wide as they get .I think they both wanted to look as big as they could .The one on the right was screaming loud and often [that is what made me go look ] Glen says sharpie and red-shoulder now I have to really look harder ,I was almost sure it was a cooper but this shot does look a lot like a RS now pacific peregrine falcon no that it is not for sure wing tips and tail not right .
    The top bird one on left is a sharpie I am 90% on that size ,wings and tail but now the other one ?? I have a few shots so I need to really look at a few ,$^&*(* Glen I was shooting macro with a 105 so I really wanted my 500 for this
