Re: [Maine-birds] Osprey or Red-tail?

I won't make a guess personally but I did submit the photos to google lens and iNaturalist.
Both had Red-tail Hawk as the first suggestion and Red-shouldered Hawk as 2nd. Osprey was much further down the list, 5th in iNat.
Let us all know if you come to a decision.
