Some teachers at my school in downtown Bethesda spotted a hawk on the 
storage shed clutching a squirrel. Someone took a digital picture but it's 
very gray and a little difficult to tell what the hawk is. It is facing 
the photographer with its head turned sideways.  Very white breast, white 
legs and dark streaks on the flanks that are wide apart. It's hard to see 
any distinguishing marks on the face. Its wings are outspread and only 
show shadows. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
