I am hoping one of you forum members can identify this resident raptor. This bird of prey and his mate show up to take a 9:00 AM siesta on the window ledge after a hard morning of eating critters.
They are very successful hunters as I have seen them many times flying with captured Iguanas and doves. They fly to the top of the building to eat, sending a shower of feathers and body parts in the wind.
He is looking directly at the camera. The small black spot in the center is his beak. The distinctive "football helmet" may help identify him. Is that a pair of toenails or what?
