Name this Hawk
« on: January 20, 2012, 07:46:41 AM »
North of Billings, MT. Co-worker took the pics with a 400.. not sure which 400, but on a Canon.

I gently added contrast and a little saturation to this one.


This one is orginal from the camera.

Giveaway is the black belly band and the feathering to the toes.
Rough Legged Hawk.
Lots of variation of color with this raptor. Usually a wintertime visitor. Vole eater.
