Hello,
We saw a large bird of prey today in San Joaquin Marsh in Irvine in Southern California. It seemed considerably larger than a Cooper's or Sharp shinned, or red tailed hawk, of which I am more familiar. It seemed closer to a turkey vulture in size.
Their bird list has the following birds of prey:
-Osprey
-White-tailed Kite
-Sharp-shinned Hawk
-Cooper's Hawk
-Red-shouldered Hawk
-Red-tailed Hawk
-Golden Eagle
and under "unusual birds":
Bald Eagle
Swainson's Hawk
Ferruginous Hawk
Rough-legged Hawk
Prairie Falcon
Your help is appreciated!
