Craig, you don't say if the feet were well enough seen by Don to eliminate
the possibility of this bird having jesses or not, but I think it essential
to do so if this bird is to be considered a wild one, and not an escapee.

Do look for jesses (small leather straps attached to tarsi) or radio (the antenna may appear as a long, thin wire extending back from the tail) as these birds are popular with falconers, and escapees do occur. Craig, you don't say if the feet were well enough seen by Don to eliminate the possibility of this bird having jesses or not, but I think it essential to do so if this bird is to be considered a wild one, and not an escapee.
