I have been told this is probably a juvenile cooper's hawk. I saw it about 6 weeks ago at Fountain Creek Nature center and i would appreciate any comments. http://www.avoapples.com/birds/_MG_7086_cr.jpg http://www.avoapples.com/birds/_MG_7131_cr.jpg http://www.avoapples.com/birds/_MG_7186_cr.jp

I think this is a dark morph rough-legged hawk but I'm not sure. I saw it on Marksheffel Rd just north of Drennan. http://www.avoapples.com/birds/IMG_9321_cr.jpg Any comments would be appreciated Thanks Bill Bill Kosar Colorado Springs bill_ko...@msn.com -- You received this message be

I took this picture back in the spring and at the time I thought it was a juvenile Cooper's hawk. I now think it is a juvenile sharp- shinned hawk due to the relatively broad brown streaks on the chest. http://avoapples.com/birds/IMG_5004_4x6.gif Comments would be appreciated. Thanks Bill Kosar
