Observation details
Light morph adult seen hovering (with wings tilted at a nearly 45 degree angle to achieve an almost motionless hover against the prevailing wind), and slowly drifting southwards at an altitude of 250-300 feet, as it watched the ground for potential prey. First time seeing this species in York Region!
