Red-shouldered Hawk

Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus)

This hawk posed for me for about a minute on the fence. I laid flat on the ground to try not to scare it away, and it worked for a little while. Not the best composition with the fence, but the bird is close enough that traits are clear. I will include a close up on the next picture with the fence out.
Please, let me know if my bird ID is wrong.

Marvelous frontal close-up of this beautiful Red-shouldered Hawk. Great head turn and eye contact with excellent lighting showing excellent feather detail and colors. Top-marks Armando!

That's a fine picture you've got there Armando. Such a handsome hawk too.

Very well done and many thanks for showing him to us.
