Begin forwarded message:
Here is a great photo of a hawk that has caught a squirrel.  Can you all help in identifying what kind of hawk it is?

Hi Robin,
The photo is attached. The person who took the photo believes it is a red-tailed hawk and I have someone else who believes the same, but I have a reader who says it's a red-shouldered hawk. Need to figure out if a correction is needed.

You can send me the photo and I will post it on our Richmond birders' listserv to get some expert opinions.

A few weeks ago we ran a photo of a bird in our newspaper and have since had another reader dispute the kind of bird photographed. I was wondering if I can send you the photo and have someone from the society try to positively ID what kind of bird it is?
