Possible goshawk?

by Monika G.
(Kitchener, ON)

Lately we've had a Hawk of some kind scoping out our backyard for prey.

It almost got one today (either a squirrel or a sparrow).

I looked in my bird book and it kind of looked like a juvenile Goshawk, but I'm not sure.

I live in Kitchener, Ontario.

Sorry for not the greatest quality of picture!

Thank you for sending us your pictures and report of your sighting!
