Swainson's Hawk

Swainson's Hawk -- San Luis National Wildlife Refuge, CA
Canon EOS Rebel T5i, EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS II, 1/1600s, f/5.6, ISO: 200
I saw at least two swainson's hawks this weekend that I was able to identify.  I also saw one or two others that I wasn't sure about other than I knew they weren't red-tailed hawks or harriers.  The two I was sure about were a couple of hundred feet apart on the tall elk fenceposts.  I imagine they're probably wrapping up their long migration from Argentina.  What a haul.
