UFO

Unlike some fellow bloggers, I haven't had any luck with raptors so far. I either don't have the camera with me or they are just too far away, or back lit, or something else. I can't even ID this one. So, please, dear readers, if you know who this is, share your knowledge with the ignorant. :)

[edit - 12 April 2009] After Studying the link provided by BlackCrow and Dave Lewis' suggestion that it probably is a Harrier, I'm convinced now that this is a young Swamp Harrier!
