Media notes
In the field thought this was a NOGO. It was a very large accipiter with a lot of white speckling on its back with white edges to the greater coverts, white speculum seemed prominent . On examining my photos didn't see the dark streaking on the under tail coverts. Chest was not Buffy. Dark bands on tail where not edged with buff. Flushed this bird from the forest floor then it settled on a branch and didn't seemed bothered by us. Behavior more like a COHA than an NOGO. A very large juvenile female.
