===Juvenile=== The juvenile Harris's hawk is heavily streaked with white or [[Buff (colour)|buff]] on the underparts, and appears much lighter than the solidly dark-breasted dark adults. When in flight, the undersides of the juveniles' wings are buff-colored with brown streaking, and the primary feathers are whitish except at their tips, giving a pale panel on the outer wing; the tail band is also paler than on adults. They can look very unlike adults at first glance, but the identical chestnut [[plumage]] is an aid for identification.<ref name="Sibley"/><ref name=rappole/> [[File:Parabuteo unicinctus unicinctus (recorte).jpg|thumb|Adult of ''P. u. unicinctus'' in Argentina.]]
