The red tailed hawk is the most common species in North America, and estimated numbers are over one and a half million birds. The red tail occurs in various habitats, with three distinct races, the common red tail, found over most of the eastern two thirds of the country, Krider's red tail, a pale race found on the plains, and Harlan's red tail, of Alaska and the Canadian Northwest. This race is dark in color, and may be considered a separate species after more research is done.
