Thanks Chuck..
The one I have on the other site has different markings that that one has.. But, it still may be a Kestral rather than a Coopers Hawk. I see at least one of them every time I am out turkey hunting up here.. They are surely fast little flyers and quick when dropping down at it's prey.
After re-reading it on the other site I will throw in the towel.. My guess is the same as yours as it being a Kestral
