[cobirds] Help with Bird ID

Friends of mine that own property at 7,000’, at the border of Fremont Co with Teller Co, in Pinon-Juniper and open field (blue gramma) habitat, sent me a picture of a bird captured by a trail-cam (situated on a tree near their travel trailer) from last June 29. The nearest water is 4-mile creek, 800’ down in Helena Canyon a half-mile away. No close-by lakes.

 

The link below is to two photos: one which is the full photo with trailer hitch etc in frame for size determination, and the other photo is just a cropped 100% full resolution image, of the same photo, of the bird itself flying towards the camera.

 

I literally have no idea what this bird might be. So – I would appreciate anyone that has time, to take a look at it and offer me their opinion of this photo of a bird.

Thanks for any input.
