Media notes
ZTHA in lower left. Note wings held in dihedral. Photo basically to show size difference between GOEA (center) and this bird
Observation details
Holy Cow! Wings held in a dihedral as this raptor was screaming and chasing after the GOEA. Everything was quite backlit and this raptor appeared to be an all black hawk from below. Photo with two birds shows size comparison to GOEA. First shows white band across distal portion of tail. I thought that this raptor is only in Mora County in the Canadian River Canyon rather than in the foothills of the Sangres - apparently not.
