Description
This beautiful creature has been soaring around my house for several weeks.
Finally got a picture of him!!
I believe this is a red tail hawk.
Update *** Now identified as an OSPREY ***
Thanks to Wingnut and Danob

I agree ,it does look like a redtailed hawk.I live in Central New york and we are still lucky enough to have some here. Beautiful shot and he was so nice to hang out so you could show him off on the net! Thanks so much! Big gift!
