I was out there yesterday also looking for the Harris' Hawk without luck. Initially what appeared to be a Harlan's far in the distance was observed near the intersection of Elray and Fagerquist. Later after that hawk swooped in with a couple of Caracara and a couple of what I believe were Chihuahuan Ravens, I was able to capture a couple of pics of it The Harlan's http://i1238.photobucket.com/albums/ff500/rporter314/ebird%20photos/IMG_4034A_zpsa6a18eea.jpg What I believe to a a Chihuahuan Raven http://i1238.photobucket.com/albums/ff500/rporter314/ebird%20photos/IMG_3988Asmall_zps871f985f.jpg Today at Hornsby I found this duck http://i1238.photobucket.com/albums/ff500/rporter314/ebird%20photos/IMG_4410Asmall_zpsb1426793.jpg anyone have an idea what kind??? ray porter highlands texas ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kerri Chambers" <kerridiann.chambers@xxxxxxxxx> To: "Texbirds" <texbirds@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 07, 2013 12:38 PM Subject: [texbirds] Harlan's Red-tailed vs. Harris Hawk >I reviewed my photos of what I thought was a Harris Hawk yesterday after >reading Ian's post about seeing a Harlan's Red-tailed Hawk in the same spot >yesterday morning in Elroy, TX near Austin.
