Participant Photo: Sharp-shinned Hawk?
Sharpshinned hawk? My husband took this Saturday August 29, 2015 in front of our house. This is about 10 feet from where we normally do out FW counts.

Looks like a Cooper’s Hawk.
I’d have to agree that it’s a Cooper’s Hawk. The long body, position of the eye, rusty color on the nape and neck and the thick legs all point to Cooper’s hawk.
