Sorry folks after hearing from others it appears to be a younger bird giving it the yellow tinges on the wingbar. My mistake.

Hybrid seen at attached coordinates: (41.4314080, -72.2871584) along power cut. Signs of hybridization somewhere in its lineage as there were only some tinges of yellow on the bottom wing-bar, but still a cool phenomenon nonetheless as others in this group have discussed. And thanks to Stefan Martin for confirming my suspicions.
