the damn thing has a 4+ foot wingspan. It looks a hell of a lot bigger in our garage than it did standing in the road. He’s REALLY intimidating to be close to.
We’re still waiting on the wildlife rehab guy. At this point I’m thinking Keni and I might have a pet.
I'm probably wrong

Finally got the bird to the rehab guy. It’s a second year juvenile red tail, next year the full adult coloration will come in. Almost certainly got smacked by a car and got its bell rung. Slightly emaciated so it’s been having trouble getting food for whatever reason. He was in decent health, so it didn’t look like anything was critical. He’s going to nurse it back for a week or so then release it if it’s healthy enough at that point.I'm probably wrong
