SY RTHA

Bad pictures of this guy today, hopefully I get some better ones if I'm awake for any of the others caught this fall. Hatch year Broad-winged Hawk caught be Frank:

This second year Red-tailed Hawk was caught at one of the other trapping blinds today by Chris, making it the first adult I've see in hand. Note the older, shorter, browner feathers in the wing, making it a second year.
