Can You Identify?
Observed and Photo taken Sept 22, 2010
Location, Homer Alaska 99603
Activity, three of these young appearing hawks were playing with the Stellar Jays for over an hour today. We have often observed this behaviour and are quite sure it is play of sorts as sometimes the Jays go after the hawks and sometimes the hawk after the Jay, often with both ending up on the lawn together.

either a red tailed hawk or a rough legged hawk

Honestly Chris, we aren't sure what this lil' fellow is! He sure enjoys playing with the jays, and when the jays get tired they fly under the car to take a rest. It is awesome to watch ~ very unusual behavior.
