    Neat pose with the eye peaking out....it looks just a little dark on my monitor but otherwise a really cool shot.

    Nice capture of the Cooper's (?) this and the Sharp shinned are difficult birds to differentiate, but I'm thinking it might be a Sharp-shinned Dave. Mainly because a Cooper's tail feathers have prominent white tips (although this coloring can be worn off) and to me, its eyes should be more forward on its head; i.e. closer to the beak, for a Cooper's.
    The difficulty, for me anyhow, to ID these birds, is why I've started calling them Shooper's.

    Great shots guys! I think you're correct Bill. I struggled with the ID and now agree that the lack of a white strip shows this guy is a Sharp-Shinned Hawk.
