Wow, Gil, what a great catch! I saw one of these on the west rim road about 3 weeks ago and wondered was type of hawk it was. I'd never seen one with the light colored chest. Great photo!

Great ID Beanhead!

Boyoboy, that hardware on the pole sure is familiar... from years of wrecking out old line around here in Tok.

Thank you very much Duane, Eileen, Jeannie, and Katy for your nice comments.

Jeannie, Ya the West Rim Road is where this one was. Seems like I manage to see them there.

Eileen, Thank you for the ID. I thought that is what it was, but couldn't think of the name, so couldn't look it up. Besides,Didn't think about til I was on the uploading mode. I thought I would later just google for Hawk,and that would give me a clue with the images they would show.Thanks for the info. Appreciate it.
