Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus) (?) in Forest: All Neat

Red-shouldered Hawk (Buteo lineatus) (?) in Forest: All Neat

Feathers clean. The hawk is still aware of me -- and that strange clicking noise... But not too concerned... Thanks to Charlie Quinn for the suggested ID: "How about an immature Red-shouldered Hawk?
That would be my best guess - the bib of dark streaks on the breast and the barring on the belly is a key feature." More photos nearby. And I do understand, ID is much easier in the field than from one or more old photographs. In the forest along Road F near Trail 15, 10:58:58 am.
