Red-tailed Hawk (possibly Krider’s)

Spotted this hawk on a quick trip to IL to visit my Dad. I wasn’t sure of the species of hawk as I’m not very good with raptor ID. I put an ID request on a FB page and they had a debate whether it was a Krider’s Red-tailed Hawk or a light morph Red-tailed Hawk or a “mutt” of the two. No matter to me...I just thought it was beautiful! 😂

Wow Great shot. Considering where you found it I would think it is a light phase of the eastern race of the Red-tailed Hawk.
