definitely juvenile Black Kite. Wing patterns and dark eye mask visible in the other picture are diagnostic plumage features.

Very difficult to identifly this bird - it's not a falcon and i doubt it's not an eagle as they have different beak/head shapes. methinks it's a hawk but without colour I can't say much more.

Ah right, this was a difficult one. But I'm pretty sure the bird is a juvenile(young) Black Kite - [link] [link]

I'm unsure, the angles/colours aren't so good for identifying + i think it's a juvenlie, which confuses things more. My best guess is a juvenile black kite so I can't help much more

Might be, well from other photos I can tell that he has red spotted fur on his feets, and his tail is striped.
So I was thinking, it might be a New Zealand falcon?! , it kind of looks like it ?

I work with birds of prey a I can tell you that it is certainly not any kind of falcon - falcon have thinwings that come to a point and their beaks have a notch in them. It's isn't an eagle either for other facial reasons.
It is an unusual species, uncommon in falconry. A Kite or Caracara are my best guesses or possibly some unusual type of hawk.

Wow, love the dramatic black and white! I think it is a falcon, by the way, but I don't know which kind. If you want to find out for sure I could post it to our bird ID blog for you?

Seriously this was a extremly awesome photograph!
It catched my eye right away, and the focus is damn good.
Also love the darkness who let a 'darkness' pass on me ~

You're such an inspiration!
