Redtail liftoff

The same one that was so curious. He didn't stick around this time, though.

A very good shot...

Very nice shot.

Exceptional. One thing I have noticed about these RTHs is they are much darker than we normally see here in Texas during the winter. Is the color for breeding or are they always like this? Nice work.

Thanks everybody!

This guy is pretty dark. He's a recurring RTH and lives at an abandoned golf course near where I live. Outside of his territory the Redtails aren't nearly as dark. Here's a portrait of one who lives down by the water:

That is what I'm used to seeing. Thanks for the reply.
