3/21/11,  12:30 P.M., Joachim Bible Refuge, Greene Co.

The light phase juvenile Rough-legged Hawk, last reported by David Kirschke, is 
still at the Joachim Bible refuge. I watched it hovering over the fields along 
S.Mohawk Rd. for about 1/2 hour this afternoon. During the time I was there a 
Red-tailed Hawk also kited close to the Rough-legged Hawk in the strong breeze 
and so provided a nice study of the difference in size, shape, and field marks.
