I know these are poor pics... I was in my yard last week and looking up saw a bird doing the circling thing, but really poorly. The Turkey Buzzards are so graceful and swooping and this bird was having a hard time of it and very awkward. As it got closer overhead, I could swear it was an owl. It did not have the profile of a Hawk or Osprey. It had a blunt head. I looked through my bird books but really can't find a match under owls. I was able to scramble and snap some pictures, although very poor.
Any ideas on what this is?
