Snail Kite (Rostrhamus sociabilis ?) Snegleglente ~ Gavilán Caracolero ~ Snäckglada 2019-02-27 Río La Tovara (nay), Mexico
Young bird with boldly streaked breast and buffy markings in the head. Very worn tail. Legs should be yellowish, but probably covered with mud. Subspecies of these West Mexican birds remains unknown to me. |
