Observation details
First reported by Tom Jones at dusk last night. Given the time of the sighting, I took a chance that it might be roosting overnight there so I arrived before first light this morning. Large Buteo-sized, all black bird roosting on the roof of the 40 Club restaurant in Aitkin. Head all black with some slightly lighter skin showing. Could see ends of primaries tinged with white on the ends of the wings while the bird preened. When the bird turned its back to me the stubby tail was evident. Photo.
