 Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Looks like a Sharp Shinned. Had them in the back yard as well, and just looked it up. Could be Cooper's, which look very similar, but bigger. The Sharp shinned is more common I believe. Let the more experienced weigh in though.

I agree, 80% SS. Hard ID but the barrel chest makes me think it's a SS.
Tail tip in the pic is hard to ID wether it is square or rounded like the Cooper.

.Check out www.birds.cornell.edu/pfw.../accpiterlDtable.htm[/url]. They have pics and comparisons
of the SS and Cooper.
Really hard to tell from the pic posted.

Checked that site and 2 or 3 other sites plus 2 different field guides, just couldn't get a match I was confortable with, that is why I posted here: the ultimate authorities?  |

Ah, you too? After being woken up every morning the last 3 days and only the rare visit from birds, the squirrel must die. There's only one right now that comes by at the same time every morning. |
