I think it was hunting the birds at the house with the big feeder. It was perched at the top of a deciduous tree that was overhanging the road, but I didn't recognize it being a Rough-legged Hawk until it flew away when I drove down the road under this tree. I then saw the white tail base visible in flight. I also saw the black patch at the wrist on the pale underwing. It flew up to 965 and landed in the top of a white pine where I photographed it, but then it went over to the solar field area. It was snowing too much for decent pictures.
