Perhaps your thinking of a pigeon hawk?

My guess is its either a red-tailed or Harlan's Hawk. I'm also going out on a limb and saying both hawks are the same bird.

Guest - Nov 25, 2005 04:22 PM EDT Great detailed shot of the hawk.
Guest - Nov 25, 2005 04:00 PM EDT another great shot. is this one a sparrow or sharp shinned hawk? and the other a red tailed hawk?
we get them on our patio and back yard when food gets scarce in the local fields. they come here for a dinner of the songbirds that we are feeding.
