I am not sure of the species of this bird. It looked like a hawk of some sort and there has been a Red-tailed Hawk seen in the area. This bird had black on the tips of its wings and a white/cream breast with brown flecks. The branch it is sitting on is the same width as a forearm for reference.

Osprey (Pandion haliaetus)Observer
climpertDescription
I am not sure this was an osprey, and I identified it as such because of its wingbeat and behavior. It was seen flying over a pond, circling the perimeter, and then diving into the water, and repeated this three times, until it caught a fish, and flew out of sight.
