Looks like a dark-morph Rough-legged Hawk. Good bird for SF. Cheers, Peter

Most responders believe it is a red-tailed hawk. One responder believes it is dark-morph Rough-legged Hawk. Than you one more time for all responses! Mila.

I’ll look at it again. I thought it hovered more like RLHA and the bill seemed small for RT. But it was a 5-second look, maybe too quick. P

Having had a chance to look at it more the plumage falls within range of variation for dark-morph juvenile Red-tailed and not Rough-legged, particularly in lacking a dark tail tip, having uniform underparts, and the dark face/hood as others have pointed out. I had not gone beyond the first two clips when looking quickly last night, which give it more of a RLHA look; e.g., the small-looking head and bill when looking away from the camera. But it looks much more like a RTHA in shape during later clips with the raven, etc.
