Observation details
JF identified this bird in the field as a dark morph RTHA based on broad wings, brownish (vs. blackish) color, and red tail with a thin (not broad) subterminal band. The bird appeared to be an adult. Photos confirm the identification. Of interest is that in some photos, the red color to the tail is not evident, making the plumage superficially similar to Buteo brachyurus. Body and wing shape match B. jamaicensis.
