What's this raptor?

I chased this guy through all sorts of bush today, but never got close.

Here is the distance:

His name is Glenn if you go by the avatar
They are worse then Kingfishers to get close enough for a decent shot unless you know their favorite roosts and can hide effectively, just maybe they might fly by. I am still waiting for that moment.
