today and at least a couple other times this winter, we have seen in flight at tree top height and in areas of mixed trees and open space, but not wide open fields, a hawk which has the general appearance and behavior (flaps alternating with glides) of a red tail, darker on top and lighter below, no obvious tail bands, but with a distinct white rump (as seen from above). do red tails in certain color/age morphs have such white rumps? really doesn't seem to be harriers. - the Cohens <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=icon> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=link> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
