August,

My quess and that's all it will be would be an adult Sharp Shinned Hawk. I am basing by guess on the shape of the head and the length of the tail. Overall size would be another indicator but that would be hard without something to campare your image to.

Nice images, thanks for sharing.

I'd have to agree with Chase, a Sharpy.

Nice shots.
