Finally have heard from the Audobon Society and they say it is a red tailed hawk very common to this western New York area. We also thought Goshawk ,,,mystery solved ,,, Thanks for all the comments.

hi again, Betty, - have just been checking the bird book again, and am wondrin' if this might be a Goshawk? The red tailed hawks that we see here are much darker brown under the neck & chest, than this one. Have never seen a hawk with this much white on it. Apparently the goshawks do have the same "shape" as the red tailed hawks tho'.

Wonderful capture of this hawk. I like the colors and detail that you got, even the little catch light in the eye.

Thanks Alandra, I have a wonderful sweet Scottie dog and I am told that we do need to watch out for coyotes around him that have been spotted here.

I can't say much for the gray squirrel though.

You are a Red-tailed hawk I think,but I'm nearsighted so I could be wrong.If you are not a red-tailed hawk,you are still a WOW!!!!

great shot, Betty. Am not sure what it is tho'. Some type of a hawk I think. If you have a cat or small pet, perhaps you should watch it carefully.
