njones Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Hawk seen flying over deciduous and pine forest - with meadow and stream - Oct 17, late morning, in Wilton, CT. Thinking Cooper's Hawk but not sure. Red-tailed Hawk and Turkey Vulture also flying overheard nearby. Any help is much appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akandula Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 A Cooper's is correct. Note the large head, thin streaking, and graduated tail feathers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the lightly-marked side feathering; Sharpie typically has lots of markings there, particularly wide bars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
