Description Still need to ID.
Funny story with this image though.
I was actually in a Starbucks parking lot where someone had thrown out a big batch of bird seed (there has been a lot of snow).
This is a recently developed area, so there is still a lot of farmland nearby (on one side of the street there's an outlet mall, the other a herd of cows kind of area in short).
So there's a bunch of cowbirds, pigeons, seagulls, robins etc. eating the seed and what not.
Then from one of the nearby trees/field, this guy swoops in hoping for an easy meal.
He missed, but I found it was kind of funny I was able to grab a coffee and take wildlife photos in the same place.

This is one beautiful bird! I haven't a clue what kind it is so I can't help you out there.

Thanks (I guess on behalf of the raptor lol )
No problem, I think it's a juvenile of some sort cause of all the brown, but I'll check my bird guide.
