Red-tailed Hawk (immature): York County, Maine, USA, August 2024 — And there it was, sitting on perch along the stretch of trail through the marsh where I have seen a hawk many times this summer, only closer this time. This is an immature Red-tailed Hawk, with its tail feathers already getting a little worn, so maybe a spring bird, but such a beauty!
