I posted this on the ID thread but haven't gotten a positive answer, but I am 99% sure this is a juvenile Cooper's Hawk. It's my first hawk picture. :-) My birds had suddenly all vanished and I saw this mysterious bird flying in the branches overhead. Thought it was a crow at first. Then it landed on my deck. I was so excited that my pictures didn't come out so great. Not sure they would have anyway because of the angle of the sun. But he also didn't stay very long either.
