This is one of the Accipiter hawks. It is either an immature Cooper's Hawk or immature Sharp-shinned Hawk. These can be notoriously difficult to distinguish, even by experienced birders. I suspect this is a Cooper's Hawk, but cannot be certain. http://feederwatch.org/learn/tricky-bird-ids/coopers-hawk-and-sharp-shinned-hawk/
