There is a raptor forum maybe you should post the picture there. It's a great shot. Maybe these pictures will help. To me if they're large they are redtails. If they're small they're sharp shinned or coopers. Sarah Here is a link that might be useful: hawk id

Peterson's didn't help. Oops. Need an ID.

Before this one, I'd only seen a cooper's, aside from flyovers, once since i started bird watching. It was perched on neighbors HAM radio antenna, and I was able to get a few pics of it. Before I started bird watching, I saw, what I now am pretty sure was, a cooper's hawk try to catch a blue jay that was perched in one of my crepe Myrtle trees, right in front of me, he missed though! Everything I've ever reAd about cooper's, describes them as being "uncommon" in urban areas and lists them As "forest dwelling hawks" which is what made me doubt this hawk was a cooper's, and also why I usually assume it's a red tailed when I see hawks in busy/urban areas, now I'll make sure to take a closer look! Thanks!

Great. We have lots of pigeons he can have.
