I'm not sure if this red-tailed hawk is white enough to be classified as a pale or light morph but it's pretty cool anyway. There were two others right near by that were a lot more brown. I suspect all three are juveniles because they don't have have the prominent red-tail yet.
"Blonde"isn't a technical bird term. Allaboutbirds.org refers to light and pale morphs of red-tailed hawks.
Welcome to Today at the AHATS Wildlife Observation Area (formerly TCAAP Wildlife Viewing Area.) I've been visiting this small park regularly since 2008. This is a log of all the wildlife and nature I experience nearly every day.
