Hello I posted a thread in january 2011 on a vacation in the florida keys., mainly for ospreys. My other half was very patint. and I managed plenty of shots However I cannot ID this bird. it was in thick bushes and only about 6ft of the ground it didn't seem scred of me. please could a kind person ID this raptor, apologies for not being able to get a full frontal regards mike
Red-shouldered Hawk. Note barring on secondaries.
