Observation details
Glancing out the kitchen window I was astonished to see a large dark raptor with a ECDO in his claws from which he casually ripped chunks as I watched. Quickly went for camera and caught several shots, the two best of which are attached. I worried over this ID extensively, researching both field guides and the internet. A juvenile BAEA would be far more likely, but I just couldn't dismiss the possibility of this being a GOEA, a life bird for me if I am correct. Both species I learned will dine on birds. Thanks to Charlie Ewell who corrected the ID of this bird as STHA.
