Greetings from Veracruz Mexico:
I recently spent several weeks digiscoping and birding the the Tuxtlas Mountains. I was able to get photos of two fledgling raptors. The attatchment is in form of a collage, all views of the same raptor. I spent a little more than two hours observing the fledglings before I identified them. This species is also found in the US.
Raptor ID can be a challenge and IDing juveniles even more so.
Any forum member have any ideas as to the ID of this juvenile?
Good birding,
