Not sure on the size but it looks like an hatch year Cooper's to me.. The yellow eye puts it as a hatch year bird, the head is looking more Coop's to me.. -- Andrew Longtin Corcoran (Hennepin Co.)

I thought the same. It has a great Coopers profile, long and lean, except that the wings are too long and the tail isn't long enough.

Looks more like an immature Red-shouldered Hawk to me. The tail bands are not wide enough for a Coop. and the terminal dark band on the tail is not consistent with Broad-wingeds. If I use my imagination I can see a hint of rufous "red" in the shoulders. Just my thoughts.

Hi all, If you have access to the CLO/Thayer's Birds Of North America program, check out the picture of the immature Red-shouldered Hawk. That bird is almost a 100% dead ringer for this guy.

[mou] hawk ID help
This hawk showed up one day at the feeders. Not sure if it's after the many house sparrows or the family of mice that have taken up. Any ideas what it is? Dawn Bradshaw Bloomington

--0-1169567679-1141688071=:37149 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Saturday I reported seeing a Broad-winged Hawk in Kanebec County. Now...I'm sure I was totally wrong. All day I've been thinking it was bigger than that. Totally white underneath. Dark on top. It seemed big. Approx. Osprey sized and the position while perched, reminded me of one also. But wing shape was wrong. My very first thought was of Ferruginous. But come onin Kanebec County? But then, I think I've seen a very similar hawk on the ground,during the summer months, a year or two ago. AAAggg! It can drive a person crazy! SoMaybe a Krider's RT ?Do we see alot of those in MN?
