I have a link to three phtots I took today of a hawk that I am unsure of  id. 
Yellow eyes. First thought was juvenile cooper's hawk, but the breaset  
stripes are horizontal not vertical. It was small so I think it was a  
broad-winged 
hawk. Saw it half way between Clarksville and Erin.
In flight, wings up. _http://www.flickr.com/photos/utlaw97/447693441/_

marking

My downy woodpecker has become a daily visitor to me feeders. Haven't had  
any goldfinches on my feeders for a while, but have seen in trees.
