Hey!
I am usually pretty good with hawks. This guy was passing thru powered flight then a few glides. Wing span made me grab the camera thinking it was a
Harrier with that longish looking tail.
after looking at the image I thought Broadwing, Then back to Redtail. Now I am confused and want a fresh set of eyes.
I used my Raptor guide to the full extent.
Nappers reasoning
Juvenile Harriers have black wing tips (primaries) and wide black bar on edge of secondaries (rear edge o wing),
Juvenile Red Tail (
Retail) have dark patagial band on wing leading edge, belly band and black markings on secondaries
Broadwing Juvenile have single stripe near end of tail feathers, black marking on secondaries.
I give up on this one :roll: Its probably a herring gull
