Subject: dark phase red tailed hawk

Hi Mark
Has anyone reported one of these birds in the Beamsville Grimsby area recently?
I looked out my window to see a large black bird which was too big for a crow
with bright yellow feet sitting in a a black willow shrub by the creek. Never
having seen dark phase red tail I would hesitate to call it but it did have a
red tail when it flew. If anyone has time to check the area, as it has now
flown off, it might be worthwhile. I understand this would be quite unusual
for this part of Ontario.
I am at 5515 King St. (reg. rd.#81) in Beamsville. At 30 Rd. We do get quite
a few hawks around here as there is a conservation area just across the road
in the valley and lots of small critters and birds.
