Red-Shouldered Hawk

I came upon this fellow while out and about today. A red-shouldered hawk is the only match I could come up with for the tail pattern so I hope I'm right.

  1. We have so many red tail hawks around here, its nice to see other species from time to time!
    With how big these hawks are I am always amazed at how the can fly thru wooded areas with only the woosh of their wings signaling their presence, and usually by the time its heard, its too late for whatever little critter they’re after.
    Great pics man!

  3. I would agree with your ID... but I'm only an occasional birder. That last photo is pretty nice.

  4. Great pictures. We do not have the red-shouldered here, but they are a beautiful bird I want to see sometime.
