These guys were scoping out our free rangers today. Would you say Cooper's hawk or red shouldered? Sorry the pictures are poor quality. It was from quite a distance with a telephoto lens then enlarged.

I would say either Cooper's or Sharp Shinned. More likely Cooper's because of the size and I can see a white tip on their tails.
