Cool bird. Thanks for posting the pics.

defnintely one of the two - Coopers are bigger - closer to a crow in size (14 - 20 inches tall) , but the sharp shinned (10 - 14 inches tall) has a bit of a dark eyebrow - so its hard to tell - maybe a female coopers or a male ss?. geat shots either way

My guess is Coopers hawk. The sharp contrast between the cap and the nape of the neck is almost diagnostic. That, in combination with the shorter outer tail feathers makes me think Coopers. Perched accipiters are tough...much easier in flight.
