    On looking further at the third bird with your foot I’d say it’s a goshawk (immature)

    Dead raptor, Mangaf, Kuwait

    Blue feet are quite common with gyrs, Peales peregrines and sakers but I have never seen black feet and I have seen every hybrid produced for the arab market.

    Sand Partridge help needed

    Andrew is being modest he's a renowned and respected artist who is especially wonderful with birds of prey. I've had the honor of seeing some of his original works and they are not only stunning but extremely accurate representations.

    HELP what kind of eagles and vultures are these?

    Pic 2 : Bateleur (juv), Egyptian Vulture & White-backed Vulture. Does the E vulture have feathers all the way to the feet? I would favor Tawny Eagle for this, but then I am very short of knowledge on these birds.

    Ohio Hawk?

    Just how big is the squirrel? From looking at the pic I'd say if that is a female coops the squirrel is tiny? Are squirrels breeding this early in Ohio? Unless that squirrel is a newborn it has to be a gos.

    Hawk ID from Commercial.

    Yes it is an augur buzzard usually used as a stand in for a Redtailed Hawk as they cannot use native species for commercial endevours in the USA.

    Odd Red Kite

    Looks normal to me, the bulbous eyes are caused by the different looking colour on the eyes due to the fact that the photo has caught the nictitating membrane covering the eyes.

    ??? What is this

    With eggs this size I think we can rule out most birds. I would think it would be some kind of reptile.
