Yamil: we are doing OK. I'm in DC now taking care of my Dad who fell down and broke his hip... I'll be in DC until the end of this month. We wish you well, and hope that you will visit us in Alaska sometime soon!

Hi Steve, Thank you for your comment. How are you guys doing? The hawks are back and it's about to get even better. The juveniles are getting bigger and smarter and the migrants should be arriving by the next month. In case you are interested, September is the peak of their migration. This year Arrastradero has been quiet, but Rancho San Antonio is very active. Please say hello to Mary and hope to see you again. Yamil

I haven't had much time to view images this summer, and the satellite internet service we use has been acting up, so I can't often even load usefilm pages. Nice shot Yamil!

Hi Dave, Thanks for your comment, Actually the males don't have white dots along the edge of their tail, the dots are black. The images that I saw in the Sibley Guide to Birds showed a solid black band covering the tip of the caudal feathers. This one for sure is a juvenile male. Thanks to their sexual diphorphism it's very easy to tell the difference between female and male. Females are pale and males are very colorful. Also, another tip to remember is juvenile males and females resemble the respective adult. Keep in touch Yamil

Really good image, again, Yamil. Do the males acquire the white dots along the edge of the tail with maturity, or is this a female?

Great shot Yamil.
Are you and Marcus going to put together a coffee table book: "Birds in Flight"?
A friend of mine is trying to convince me to go to Costa Rica, any suggestions on good areas for wildlife/birds?
All the best, Ed
