Can someone please identify these hawks? I believe Pic 4 & 5 is a Variable Hawk. Taken in Antisana National Park Ecuador in July.
Thanks
Chris

1-3 = immature yellow-headed caracara. these pics recall crested / southern a bit, with the first hinting at a dark cap. However, the pale panels in the wings are very much at the base of the primaries whereas for crested they would extend down towards the tips. Agree the hawk is variable.
