| Comments:: |
"This bird has been seen
continuously for the past month or so. It is definitely
a bird of prey as we have watched it eat upon a perch.
It has absolutely no other colors other than its pure
white feathers from head to toe (underbelly and under
wings too) and its yellow feet and beak. It has been
seen as close as 150 to 200 yds from our house and can
estimate a wingspan of around 5 feet. This bird is
extremely keen. The instant we try to step outside to
get a better shot it looks directly at us and jumps to a
farther tree, even at distances of 200+ yds. I have
searched many references and found no solid answer to
name this amazing bird of prey. If you have any
information it would be greatly appreciated. In the mean
time, we will keep an eye out for a better picture." |
