The Yellow-headed Caracara is 41 46 cm (16 18 in) cm long and weighs 325 g (11.5 oz) on average. The female is larger than the male, weighing 310 360 g (11 13 oz), against his 280 330 g (9.9 12 oz). It is broad-winged and long-tailed, somewhat resembling a small Buteo. The adult has a buff head, with a black streak behind the eye, and buff underparts. The upperparts are brown with distinctive pale patches on the flight feathers of the wings, and the tail is barred cream and brown. The sexes are similar, but the head and underparts of immature birds have dense brown mottling. The voice of this species is a characteristic screamed schreee.
