Also, would like to know if the small white shoulder patch is an indicator. The attached image has this bird as the first image and other pictures from google.
Nice photos bugmat! I do not think there should be anything controversial about calling that a White-tailed Hawk. Wing shape (long and quite pointed with a thinning from secondaries to and through primaries), upper parts coloration, and the tail make it look quite straightforward to me unless I'm missing something.
