Was watching from high up in a tree along the river, as we enjoyed the snowy scenery. I’m guessing red-tailed hawk but not positive. I find hawk identification challenging.

I'd say you're right that it's a red-tailed hawk with an eagle eye! look at that focus! nice capture.

Yes, red-tailed hawk. Awesome capture!

[PhylM-S]

And he's as focused on something as you on him!

Identifying hawks is indeed very challenging, esp with all the morphs and depending on how old they are. But yes, looks like a red-tail to me. Beautiful!

I can only tell they're red-tails when they're flying. We have red shouldered here and honestly it's hard to tell the difference. This is a great shot though- you have good eyes to spot him so high up!
