Nice shot, Liam! Love the molting tail!! Project Noah has increased the boundaries of the mission "Raptors of Colorado" to include all of North America, and is now called (drumroll please!) "Raptors of North America". Please consider adding this and any other raptor spottings (birds of prey) to the following: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8... Thank you!
