Gundlach's hawk picture

I am 99% sure that photo is of a Red-tailed Hawk, not a Gundlach's hawk. Can anyone confirm? C9Rav9c (talk) 23:53, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@C9Rav9c, if there is some doubt I don't see a problem with swapping the image out. Are we talking about File:Accipiter gundlachii.jpg? I note that it is not used in Gundlach's hawk, is very low resolution and has a watermark. All of which are concerning. The people over at c:COM:FPC have some experience with identifying birds and may be able to help on the talk page. Commander Keane (talk) 03:18, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's the one, and good to have another chime in to confirm. The second photo on the main Gundlach's page (File:Accipiter gundlachi (photo by Roberto Jovel).jpg) is much more suitable. C9Rav9c (talk) 19:32, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
