Population Estimate: Unknown, but Least Concern status
Range / Habitat: Year-round in forested areas throughout much of the United States. Summers into Canada, winters into Mexico. In winter will often be found in treed urban areas.
Field Notes: Small, long-tailed hawks with relatively small heads. The tail tends to be square-tipped and may show a notch at the tip. Cooper's Hawk similar in range and coloration, but larger.
Personal Notes: Great find, and photo, by Richard in Burlington, Vermont on a cold December day.
