Had 2 Osprey there last evening and also can see that the new resevoir is going to be a draw for shorebirds.

Hello, today during a car ride a saw a hawk outside my window. It was
medium sized with a wingspan of about 1 1/2 feet. It didn't have a fanned tail,
it had grayish under parts with black, rounded wing tips. Its tail was dark
with  faint bars and its head was dark also. It looked like a falcon or a
Cooper's or a Sharp-shinned Hawk but I can't decide. It was also  flying
above the woods. If anybody has any idea what this bird is could you  please
let me know. And if it helps I saw it in Mahoning County.
