I saw the strangest bird today in my backyard. I live in Santa Clara, CA in the USA. It landed on the pole lines. At first I thought it was a hawk because of it's size. It was the size of a crow or a red tailed hawk. But as I grabbed my binoculars I realized it was definitely not a hawk. I would guess it was 20" long, it was mostly black with a red breast and had a yellow straight beak and large pronounced black eyes. It spent some of it's time standing on one leg and was preening itself. I am totally puzzled. Looked all through my bird book and it doesn't look like anything. Please help me figure out what this bird is.
