A Hawk Over the Dominguez Gap Wetlands


A hawk hovering over the Dominguez Gap Wetlands in November. I tried to figure out what sort it was, but I'm not up on hawks? Perhaps a female kestrel? I'm going mostly by the color of the underside and the fact that she(?) spent a lot of time hovering in the evening. I never got a good look at the upper wings, and I am no good yet on comparative wing shape etc.

It was beautiful, in any case, white against the evening sky.
