It is probably a Coopers Hawk. I say probably because its tail looks almost square on the end and that would make it a Sharp-shinned Hawk. But I can't see the front of its legs and if I could then it would have sharp shins or you can see them really plain and they are not fat like a chicken leg in that lower area. <BR/><BR/>Since Coopers and Sharp-shinned are very similar and experts have problems telling them apart, you could safely call it a Coopers Hawk. <BR/><BR/>I am guessing it is a Coopers Hawk but maybe a Sharpie. Nice photo. They are a lot of them around right now. We got a lot of ice here on top of snow so they are hungry and looking for places where birds are feeding to get a quick meal.<BR/><BR/>Nice photos.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8084623774204456321.post-84209148118142116972008-02-23T10:46:00.000-05:002008-02-23T10:46:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
