Subject: [Hong Kong] ID Help on raptor [Print This Page]

Saw this raptor soaring on the morning of Aug 24th 2019 near the Tung Chung River along with a pair of kites. Kites were smaller than this bird by comparison. At first I thought it might be a crested serpent eagle, but the level wings and number of tail bands seems to suggest it's something else. Any thoughts?
