By the way Jerry, welcome to Project Noah, did not notice you were a new user yesterday. Do you know how to edit the spotting and add the names (ID) I gave you yesterday? Just click on "edit this spotting" above your name.

Awesome shot. A harrier comes to mind, from the length of the wings, or a kite maybe. It's hard to say without seeing the head.
