Hi Brian,

It appears that your camera's exposure meter was fooled by the bright sky background, resulting in a 2+ stop underexposure of the underside of the raptor.  Brightening the images (attached) better shows the true markings on the bird but I can't see any sign of a dark sub-terminal band on the tail.

Best regards,

Nick
