I agree, Gene. Love the young of different species in the same frame.

What a great duo- it it unusual to see them together? I wonder what they are thinking , looking at each other. Terrific picture.

Great capture of the interaction and 'look' between these two, Gene.

Cynthia, It's not that unusual for juveniles to tolerate each other. When an adult White-tailed Hawk comes around, everything gives it some space--including Harris's Hawks. For some reason, the bird that is tolerated best by all is the Black Vulture. In fact, Caracaras will often preen Black Vultures. I'll work on getting some photos of this interaction this Fall.
