Chuck,
It would be nice to have better shots of the tail, but it is either a light
phase Harlan's Hawk or a leucistic Red-tail. It looks an awful lot like a
white-headed, light-phase Harlan's in an article by Brian Sullivan (who I hope
will comment on this) and Jerry Liguori in the March 2010 Birding.

have seen but I think it still in in the range of that race.

I'm going to post some links to some Red-tail photos I received. Please feel
free to comment. The photographer was Debbie Goodman and the location is just
NW of Redmond, Oregon. The date was 2/23/15.
