Observation details

Large raptor sitting high in a tree at the edge of the lake. Fine markings on the breast and under the wing. Very striking black facial pattern. Bright yellow legs and feet. Sat and preened for about 15 minutes that I observed it. After walking away, I saw and heard several crows harassing it and I believe it flew off across the lake but I couldn’t see it well through the trees at that point.
