This species is not uncommon at this locality. I have seen them on several occasions, they are just really hard to get pictures of.

Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus)Observer
russell_engelmanDescription
Unable to get picture of back before it flew away. Back was very unusual, appears as if it had brown and white striping on its back. Could not determine if it had red tail or not.
Looks like there is some kind of marking band around its ankle in the photos

russell_engelmanDescription
Three individuals, fighting in the undergrowth. I got a decent look at them when they swooped through the understory, definitely a small hawk. Only was able to get good pictures of one, as they were all roosting up high in the canopy.
