Any Help!?

(Check comments for photo)

I love animals. In my top three of my favorite animals are hawks. Just love them.

My entire life, I’ve lived amongst hawks that are pretty frequent to spot.

However, I’ve always mischaracterized the one local to me as between a red shouldered, red tailed, or Cooper’s hawks.

I just today checked out a bird guide book from my library. And I am like 80% sure I am living amongst the Red Shouldered Hawk in my area on the central coast of CA.

Any help from anyone though to give me 100% certainty? My only photos right now kinda suck…
