Observation details
I spent more than a couple of hours looking at several field guides and numerous photos (on eBird and Google images) of both Red-tailed and Broad-winged Hawks. Also an Audubon webpage said that Red-tailed Hawks never have a dark bib, which this bird does seem to have. So I finally decided that this is a Broad-winged Hawk. I am interested if the eBird reviewer agrees if this photo is ever examined by one.
