Swainson’s Hawk? I don’t think so.

Wind Vane?

House Guard...

How majestic that we get this noble bird to guard our homes.

I thought it was a Swainson’s Hawk till I looked at the wing. It’s just too skinny of a wing and the wrong coloring.

What do you think it is? Maybe it is just an unhealthy version? Maybe it’s just visiting the area for the winter?

Here’s a picture of its wing. I couldn’t get a better picture because it flew away when I got close.
