Google Caracara or Mexican Eagle and see if that is what you have.

They call them a Mexican eagle but they are really colorful buzzards. They are moving farther north every year. We have seen a few here in Shackelford County the last two years.

You will wish you never had them. Why? We got lots of them and they don’t appear to be interested in anything other than dead animals. What am l missing?

They follow me around when I am shredding fields and pick up the dead snakes, mice etc... even seen them eat grasshoppers.

Saw a pair in our neighborhood in Forney. Told the wife to not let her little frew-frew dog out for a while.
I didn't realize they were this far north in Texas.
