That’s what Merlin Bird ID told me too, so I think you’re right! Just thought it was pretty awesome to see in the middle of this massive city! I could even get quite close.
It is pretty cool to find it mid-city. I'd expect to see a Coopers Hawk or Peregrine Falcon, but not a Red-Tail. I lived in the Hudson Valley for a long time and they always avoided the cities in favor of the forests.
