Bet Keith could recruit it!

Looks like it's an adult, at least over two years old. Hard to tell if its a male or female without a reference. I'm guessing female tho. Beautiful hawk.

Yesterday near Bonelli park - I'm not an ornithologist, but I'm fairly convinced this is a Red-Tailed Hawk.  First time out with the D7000 and 200-400, its a heavy combo thats for sure.
