  you maybe right on the broad wing -if it was shot in canada ?? I do not have a lot of looks at the broad wing the back with the white round areas is why I said red shoulder but my 80% just went to 50%

  I'm pretty sure its a redshoulder.
  The red coloration is the closest and the black tail banding looks more like the red shoulder then the broad winged.
  I shot this in southern ontairo canada;both species are familar in this area with the red shoulder being Rarer in this season.
