@[email protected] that doesn’t look like a red tail? Not even a dark morph?

@pissed_[email protected] Red-tailed Hawks are highly variable; not all of the plumages are shown in the typical field guide. Here's a fun link with lots of pics https://arkansashawkingassociation.org/pdf/grintailsmod[1].pdf

@[email protected] I know they’re variable but even the beak looks different! Interesting
