Heres just another way to tell apart a Coopers from a Sharp-shinned Hawk. The Coopers head into beak looks like a continuous line, like 1 "c" and the Sharp-shinned looks like 2 "c"'s or with an indentation in the middle. The information is provided by a gentleman that works for a Falcon Research Group in Washington.

These Beautiful photos were taken by good friends Bob and Bernie Meyer.
