my guess would be Cooper's Hawk, but I never know how to tell a Cooper's from a Sharp-shinned unless I know the size!

Agree, Cooper's; the side tail feathers aren't as long as the middle ones.

Tho' on second thoughts, the legs do look very slender

I've looked up Cooper's and it does look pretty close so I guess I'll close this out. Thank you!
