Junck, Rodger
|
Ferruginous Hawk
|
Ogden
|
1/4 mi. West of Ogden Iowa main street on gravel road at 'T' intersection by railroad tracks
|
Grassy rail road right of way bordered by corn/soybean fields
|
The documentation form by Rodger Junck is the only one submitted and forms the basis of this record. Other observers include unnamed sister. | Elimination of similar species: Most familiar with red-tails. I have had more than a dozen of them at a time circling my combine during harvest. Have seen them 'displaying' against each other over a rabbit as well. In fact, I see them most days - but they are considerably too small and, except for the Krider's, would be wrong color. I have no info on if Kriders have a white head and white feathery legs | The original documentation form event lasted from 09:30:00 - -09:35:00.
