I saw this dark shape in the trees just beside the railway tracks off McMillan and River Rd. Is this a dark morph red-tailed hawk and if not - what? I am intrigued about how differend red-tails are from one another if this is also one...Thanks Attachments:

Yes, that's definitely a dark morph Red-tailed Hawk. A Harlan's Hawk (subspecies of Red-tailed Hawk that is a somewhat rare visitor to our area) looks similar but has white streaks on its breast. By the way, nice pictures as well!

Yes - too bad - it was fun to spot and I did hope I had found something unique....Thanks and one small correction.... Marshall and River Road (not McMillan).
