Did you know that raptors tails differer in tail length and shape for the same reason passenger and fighter jets do.

If you can understand the reason for this difference in tail length then it is a great start to knowing what family of raptor you are dealing with.

This is the first step to making a successful raptor identification.

    That is a beautiful forest at around 5:37 or so, Doug. Where did you shoot the imagery, if I may ask?
