Hi,

Please help IDing this accipiter (N. goshawk?) and sparrow that I saw today (October 17th, 2021) in Toronto. Sorry about the poor quality of the pics.

Thanks
Ajay

I suggest immature Cooper's hawk and song sparrow

Cooper's & Song Sparrow for me as well.

I was thinking Cooper's too, but the strong eyestripe made me wonder. Thanks a lot!

1. Cooper's hawk - big bill, sloping forehead, finer streaking on centre of lower belly.

The sparrow is definitely Song Sparrow
