Sharp-shinned Hawk over the house today. (It could be a Coop... I'm waiting to hear back from the ABA group)

Comparing this bird to photos of raptors of Southern Ontario, I think this is actually a sharp-shinned hawk. #sharpshinnedhawk

Sharp-shinned Hawk
**look no further than the first photo if you find bird dismemberment a little upsetting**
I quietly walked down the side of my house to get a glimpse of this bird from my previous post.
It stayed on the fence for almost an hour.

Sharp-shinned Hawk
Another quiet day around the wildlife gardens and this bird is the reason. They look very similar to a Cooper's Hawk but are a lot less common in urban Toronto.
These photos turned out quite well through my very dirty kitchen window.

Tatu II Tuesday!
This is a new and very tiny sharp-shinned hawk, probably our old friend Tatu's sibling or offspring.

This afternoon a Sharp-shinned Hawk swooped past our bird feeders and missed. It sat for a bit make sure the smaller birds weren't coming back before departing. Why to they always fly off facing away rather than towards the camera? :-(

The google said it's either a merlin, or sharp shinned hawk. I'm going to guess it's a giraffe.

A collage of Sharp-shinned Hawks in flight
Sharpie time! It’s always fun to get close looks at #sharpshinnedhawk - they have such personality and are so dynamic during migration at Mt Watatic (MA). We had a respectable count for the #hawkwatch season with 308. Some of my fave frames here! #birding 🪶🦅

Sharp-shinned adult hawk perched on dead cottonwood branch. Branch has some bark and some gray wood showing where bark is missing. Two small vertical branches form a narrow tall vee that partially blocks view of tail. Sharpie's head is bent over backwards, out of sight, as it preens base of tail feathers' upper side. Breast and belly face forward, to viewers' right, and are aimed directly at late afternoon sun. The orange markings on the breast feathers look like an Escher style drawing of a flock of American Kestrels in formation in a fast glide directly overhead. Light blue sky forms the background. Sharpie's sharp "shins" and slender toes are visible, helping distinguish this from the very similar species -- Cooper's Hawk. Tail feathers all appear nearly the same length, another clue this is a Sharp-shinned Hawk rather than a Cooper's Hawk. Cooper's Hawks' tail feathers are progressively shorter toward the outer feathers, with the difference in length roughly the width of the feather. Whether a bird is molting and how their holding their tail at the moment has a great effect on its appearance.
Funny tale leading to the identification of the bird. #accipiter #preening #cottonwood #SharpShinnedHawk #perched

Sharp-shinned Hawk
It was a very busy day for the Pigeons today. As well as the local Red-tailed Hawks there was a lot of activity from the Cooper's Hawks and a migrating Sharp-shinned Hawk.

Back to us, and patterned in a grayish-brown with a barred tail, a small hawk perches on top of a metal silhoutte of a hummingbird atop a feeder pole.

Tatu is back! A bit skinnier but still looks healthy (and beautiful)!

A round, fluffy little hawk perches atop a feeder pole next to the metal silhouette of a bird, and wonders where the real ones went.
