MarkG Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 This bird was a real poser and I probably ended up with 200 or so photos of it. I initially pegged it as a Cooper's Hawk, but from some photos it looks more like a Sharp-shinned. Any thoughts? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinHood Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 I would say Cooper's. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Spencer Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 The head looks relatively flat, the legs relatively thick, and the eyes don't bug out. I'm with @RobinHood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkG Posted October 14, 2022 Author Share Posted October 14, 2022 Part of my confusion was the Merlin photo ID would go back and forth depending on what photo I used. Thanks! I'll be posting some additional photos on the Best Photo of the Day forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
