Hi looking for some assistance with these.
First bird was seen along the road to Conguillio National Park in South-Central Chile. Habitat was mixed farm and forest. I suspect its either a Harris Hawk juvi or a Rufous-Tailed Hawk.
Second bird was in Torres Del Paine National Park, Southern Chile. Habitat in the area was mixed steppe, mountain and forest. Not the world best picture and I have significantly lightened it. I suspect its possibly one of the Caracaras or Rufous-Tailed Hawk. Its bill seem hefty leading me to suspect white-throated caracara.
Both birds were seen in late April/early May.
thanks
Robert
