I have a resident Cooper's Hawk here, and this thing was really big. That's why I went with Goshawk. It is possible that it was a Cooper's hawk, so hard to tell them apart.
A good clue for an immature Goshawk is that they have a white stripe over their eyes, kind of like a white eye brow. Otherwise a large female coopers is about the same size as a small male Goshawk.
Sparrow Hawks (American Kestrels) are VERY small. They are slighty larger than Robins. (Turdus Migratorius) While the name implies Hawk, a Sparrow Hawk is a small Falcon. This bird is definitely an Accipiter. If it's not a Goshawk, it could be a large female Cooper's Hawk. I have some video of both if you want to check them out :)
i run that garage you took that from luckly we didnt catch you we confastate videos and camras if used off the garage with out the city managers permission
Wow, you must think I'm a moron. 1st off: It's private property and not owned by the city. Secondly, it's run by Dirigo Management, not by a 39 year old man that doesn't know the word is "confiscate" And finally, if your ran the a city run lot you would have no right to confiscate private property from an individual who was on public property. Thanks for playing.
Great to see - i love birds of prey. (I dont have a problem with the music!! I know what you mean when all you can hear is 'other stuff'. I might not have chosen this particular style of music - but you did and that's cool!!)
It was really amazing to see. Did you see the Shrike video? This little bird the size of a Robin flying with a mouse or a mole that was larger than it, in tow...
I was far away, all you hear is traffic noise and wind, thats why I put the bed in there. I was also shooting it from a parking garage with cars going up the ramps behind me...I don't know how much of an improvement that would be.
it looks likea goshawk but just to small i think it might be a imature coopers like snitcherpup said

Darn it's still a juvenile, I just got into birds, and I've yet to see an adult goshawk. I really want to see that grey gunsmoke vest. Lovely bird.

not a moron but it is legal to take away pictures of videos takeing off garages in the city if you do it with out permission.
and that is per the city lawyer .
deal with it i have been in the bussness for 20 years and i know more about laws then you do pertanining to parking garages.
and i also know the head of dirigo managment and thay would have done the same if the compay had security guards.

honestly:
my motto for 2008: less is more.
i'd rather hear the wind and traffic then hear an accoustic guitar song while a hawk eats a pigeon.
the thing about youtube: too many people trying to be art or audio directors.
i personally suggest to keep it simple.
