Joey Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 What is the 1st bird? I think it is a coopers hawk Nip, either that or a sharp shinned hawk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spincast Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singingdog Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
