Thanks, Jerry and Rob, for the discussion on hawk ID. This is one example of
what makes Tweeters so much fun. Keep typing away, just don't get carpal
tunnel syndrome!!!

Actually, if all you've been looking for are the carpal spots, I suspect
that you've mostly been seeing immatures, because the carpal spots are much
more prominent on juveniles.

And to think I consciously used wrist instead of carpal, just to avoid
confusing you.
