Observation details
Was inspection some work done in the Cacao plantation and made a list of birds as going along - about to close the list when I hear a strange call while walking towards the car - knew immediately that it was a raptor and did not sounded like anything I usually hear. Vocalization was a faint "coow" and not the whistle call it gives in flight. Sound a bit as a single strofe of a forest falcon call, while trying to get closer it suddenly flew out of the Orange plantation and perched right over my car - followed by a bunch of harassing Grackles - so photo could luckily be provided
