[QUOTE="hark, post: 722365, member: 13196"] [b]Re: Can Anyone Identify this Bird?[/b] I read the specific differences between a Cooper's Hawk and a Sharpie in the link you provided elsewhere. The tail isn't notched and its head seems to protrude further from its wrists which is indicative of a Cooper's Hawk. But I decided to plug the info into the Merlin Bird ID app to see how they'd ID it. While both a Sharpie and Cooper's Hawk came up as possibilities, apparently a Sharpie is uncommon in this area. So it does seem to be a Cooper's Hawk based on location as well as the tail and head/wrist relationship. [/QUOTE]
