[TN-Bird] Possible Cooper's or Sharp-shinned Hawk

At about 4:30 PM this afternoon I had a hawk with a long thin tail circling 
over my house.  I could not make out any markings and mainly had just the 
silhouette to go by.  The tail was quite long and thin.  The two hawks it 
resembled most closely were a Cooper's or a Sharp-shinned hawk.  I have digital 
pictures but they mainly show a silhouette.  Any Ideas?

Good Birding
