IDENTIFY THIS BIRD
BLURB FROM YOUTUBE: My Mom says this doesn't look like an owl to her. So, what the heck is it? A hawk? I know it's not a buzzard. The buzzards won't be sitting in my yard, staring at me, until later next week on their way back to Hinckley. (Yes, my yard fills with turkey vultures. Big, hideous turkey vultures.) My Mom and The Only Nikki think it could be a Red-Shouldered Hawk.

It's supposedly extinct but it really looks like The RĂ©union Kestrel (Falco duboisi). You can see photograph of it and several other falcons here.
