So if not from the plumage how would you know the specific sub species ( I know I'm retarded but I started learning about this a few hours ago).
I need to know what species so I know how they migrate and diet and everything
If you really need this much info on proper care and training of a raptor you should just return the bird. Do your research and get everything ready BEFORE you have a live animal to care for
Guy who said bonelli here and yeah the other guys right its the buzzard the non feathered legs shouldve given it away. Dont use eye color to id raptors, they change color as they get older
>do you have any resources on keeping them
you should read resources on Rehabilitation them. you can give them to those who keep raptors. i know falconers exist in north Africa, it shouldn't be difficult to find a falconer. you do not need a shelter if you find someone who knows raptors and is willing to keep them.
Plz anons I've been looking for hours, I have no requisit on birds so at first I thought it must be an Eleonora falcon but then the eyes don't match and it seems too big so is it a hawk?
I really need to know also if you have any resources in falconry for beginners it would be much appreciated ( I'm already reading the California hawk apprentice guide).
Thanks
Long-legged buzzard maybe
It doesn't really have the reddish tint on his legs also his eyes are blue, so I don't know if it's either actually
raptors have a shitton of different plumages and morphs, pic related is also a long-legged buzzard

This isn't the US we don't have shelters that sell animals for thousands of dollars, if I hadn't acquired it it wouldve probably died

You're absolutely right thank anon
Looks like a bonelli eagle to me
I think you might be right, do you have any resources on keeping them?
>do you have any resources on keeping them?
release it
No, they ve never been in the wild
where did you get it then?
Long story

Im already trying to contact one, he's in another region well see if that works. However I'll try my best to learn myself too
looks like a funny chicken
