This bird seems to suggest an immature Red-tailed Hawk rather than Red-shouldered because of its White-V on the scapular feathers and narrow dark tail bands (rather than thick dark bands and thick dark tip on Red-Shouldered). But I could be wrong, those young hawks can be tricky sometimes, especially in photos. Definitely isn't a Cooper's Hawk though. :) Good Birding.
