Rough-legged Hawk

Hwy 45, north of Kenton; Obion Co TN

This shot best shows the couple of retained juvenile secondaries (s4 and s8), conclusively aging this bird as a subadult. I don't think, from what I can gather, that this bird can be reliably sexed at this time; think that tail could be shown by either sex.
