Bird at Hyatt Lake
During my second trip to Hyatt Lake of the summer I saw this bird. What is it? I’m not sure. Maybe a hawk of some kind. I’m not very good at identifying birds. In fact, in my prior post I labeled the bird as a bald eagle (as that is what I was told), but now I’m thinking it may have been an osprey.

Pretty sure this is a Golden Eagle.

You are probably correct, Matthew. According to this site: http://www.blm.gov/or/resources/recreation/files/brochures/Hyatt%20Lake%20Campground.pdf
there are Golden Eagles at Hyatt Lake.

That’s a ‘almost’ adult Red-Tailed Hawk. Looks like a few red tail feathers are coming in as the immature ones are soon to fall out and be replaced by the all red ones.
