Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis)Observer
pisumDescription
a nest on the 8th(?) floor of an office building. (note: i usually won't post photos of active nests, but this one seemed to be far away enough that regular people won't be able to disturb it, and it's probably more important for folks to know that the nest exists there on the building, if they don't already know.)

Not 100% sure - seems like the other option would be a Northern Shoveler X Blue-winged Teal
It was acting aggressively towards other males who encroached on the female it was hanging out with.

cuckoo_birdDescription
Thought this was a turkey vulture at first but it’s definitely not. Had a distinct white stripe on tail and a black outline at the bottom of the wings. Really wish my pictures had turned out clearer because I’m not sure what type of hawk this is.
