Birding since 2006!
I went out birding with a coworker today who seemed positive that these were rough-legged hawks (we saw 3 potential rough-legs and about seven red-tails!). I have never seen one before, and took several pictures. I didn't get a long enough look through the binoculars to confirm the identity, and was wondering if it was possible to id the bird through these pictures.
This is the first bird - it was being chased by an American Crow which I've left in the first photo for size comparison.
