This doesn't look like a cooper's hawk to me. I think is a Broad-Winged Hawk

Thanks Bruce! Eric, my pond isn't very big but it has created a wonderful habitat for many creatures, and attracts many more. It has been worth the initial hard work of digging it out :)

Thank you! I believe he was eying all the frogs hanging out by the pond.
