The biggest giveaway is the feathers on its legs. They go all the way to the feet.

A beautiful capture, just want to reach out and touch the feathers. He fits the description of both the Rough-Legged and Ferruginous in my bird book but I'm not a birder.:)

I'm in Eastern Washington. The town of Davenport in Lincoln county.

I called it one of those two hawks because of the feathers on its legs. They look like they go all the way to its feet.

Check out the photo here.

:) I put that I'm in Georgia!

Old habits die hard.

Wow! Another great shot!

My guess on this one would be either a rough-legged or Ferruginous hawk. Do you have any more photos of him?

wonderful, my answer to how close he was is here, should have looked at this one first : )

Is it a red tailed hawk? looks similar to the RT hawks that we see around here.
