Sorry Trey, but the first thing that should stick out for Zone-tailed Hawk would be the much thicker white bar on the tail (following the black bar at the very end). I agree with John and Dan, this is clearly a dark morph Short-tailed Hawk.
I don't believe Toe was trying to fool us either. He probably saw something different about this bird and got thrown off, legitimately.
