immature buteo of some sort? CT, USA
I wish I had some better shots, especially an overhead, but until tomorrow this will have to suffice. This bird was sighted in Cheshire CT, USA
This beauty was travelling with a partner, but I failed to get a shot or a good look. The day before yesterday I think I saw this fellow from a distance, but the pics are just too blurry to bother with. Nonetheless, I am hoping he/she returns to the area.
For comparison, this bird looked larger than most of the red-tails I've been seeing in the area lately. I'm recalling a flap or two then a downward arch into a straight-wing in flight, but most of the time my view was obscured.
Any thoughts?
Many thanks,
Craig
