this is the bird we shot at bolsa and was id as a redtail juv. but i think it is a broadwing or coopers i can not tell them apart . The lack of a white spot on the upper chest makes me think it is not a redtail Ben if you look at the post you just did that has the white in the upper chest area .Anyone else have any ideas :scratch

    Hey Jeff
    Nope not RTH, but this one maybe a Red Shoulder Hawk, what do you think?

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I'm going to have to go with a Broadwing on this one. Do you have any shots with the tail visable. The broadwing would have large B&W bands on the tail where the red shoulder would have a predominently black tail with thin white bands.
