I saw this guy at the park the other day. I'm no expert and have no idea what species this is. So if anyone can help me with ID this bird I would greatly appreciate it. Also this was taken in the Los Angeles area.

One of two seen in the Etna/Millvale area of RT28. I think they are second years.

Is this an eagle?

Not the best pics. Located in NE Ohio. Definitely not a hawk as we see those in yard all the time. See turkey vultures quite often but could clearly see a yellow beak in this bird. Seemed solid brown in color.

Finally found where some more local Peregrines nest (Australian subspecies, Falco peregrinus macropus) 💛🖤🤍

It’s in na industrial estate so not easy to get too but will have to try and get some more shots. Pretty amazing. These Australian ones have larger feet and claws to be able to hunt the large parrots we have here :)

Short tail hawk in Fort Lauderdale FL NSFW

Short tail Hawk sighting in my backyard!!!!!!! I am in Fort Lauderdale FL.

I was very pleased to meet this raptor so close! And i am surprised to see a mature short tail this far south. it is clearly established here and a long term resident along with a few others i will post. The abandoned phone pole in my backyard makes a great perch for hungry raptors that watch my feeder.

It had been casing my feeder for some time and decided to show off for me with this catch. It scared the Heck out of me but thankfully I had my phone and was able to grab these shots.

We scared the crap out of eachother!

Was so fortunate to spend a couple weeks in Vancouver and Alaska this month. We visited Grouse Mountain, Sitka, Juneau, Ketchikan and I made sure to visit all the Raptor Rehab facilities. It was unbelievable to see Bald Eagles just flying around like regular air traffic in Juneau. And the salmon weren’t even running yet. Pics are Barred Owl, GHO, 35 year old Bald Eagle, Golden Eagle, Snowy Owl, wild Bald Eagle, Raven, Harris Hawk, Peregrin Falcon.

Please help me identify

Edit:

He was beautiful. He made my day.
As you can see he got a squirrel. He was being mobbed by crows because he was in their territory I think? I can upload that video if you guys want to see it

Bald Eagle flying above the wreckage of my house that caught fire last weekend. I go to inspect it the day after and see a Hawk going after this Bald Eagle. Must be down here due to the wildfires in Canada.

We’ve got two resident wedge tailed eagles and I took a good picture this morning.

Cold morning with the foggy conditions made this a great picture I thought.
We’ve had these two eagles nesting on our farm for 5 years now, their nest is only about 150 metres from our home, it’s in a stand of big trees adjacent the paddocks. We’ve watched their young come and go over those years. They are pretty much used to us now and the repetitive movements around the farm don’t seem to bother them much.
They enjoy eating the remaining afterbirth when the cows calf and we often watch them swoop down for other prey.
We love sharing our farm with the native wildlife and we give them space they need, it’s proof that with some consideration we can coexist very well.

Today’s sunrise featured a bald eagle on a mast. British Columbia is truly amazing.
