Cooper's Hawk

Possibly a sharp-shinned hawk.

I am thinking a coopers hawk. Not a great picture for me to say for sure. I am not much of a bird of pray fan.

It was taken threw a window screen. Thanks

Looks like a sharp-shin to me.

It's either an immature Cooper's Hawk or Sharp Shinned Hawk. There is some overlap in size, females being considerably larger than males, but for the most part Cooper's Hawks are 14" tall or taller and Sharp Shinned Hawks are less than 12" tall. I've hunted with Cooper's Hawks a bunch.

Sparrow Hawk?

Daggum little falcon that terrorizes little birds on feeders.

Man, I don't know the ones you guys have mentioned all seem to fit.

Looks like another chicken hawk to me.

larger legs point towards Coopers over Sharp shinned a little more of the breast feathers would have been better for ID.

No clue on the actual name, but when my boys were little they called them chicken chasers.

Feathered bird

Sharp shin hawk was my first thought but like said, possibly a Cooper's

I think it's too big for a kestrel.

Coopers, Sharpshins are about identical except a little smaller, and slimmer...but both are considered bird hawks. Feed the birds and they'll show up!..lol

Here's a link to the Cornell bird guide for Coppers hawk.

Pretty hard to tell from Snowy's pic.

Cooper's or sharp shinned. As said above, there can be overlap in the sizes, often difficult to tell them apart.

We like watching them around our feeders.

Agree cooper or sharp shinned they hit my birds at my bird feeder at least once a year when weather dictates heavy feeding. Have not seen either this year. True predators cool to watch
