Adolescent Coopers Hawk? (1 Viewer)

We have been seeing less and less birds at our feeders, the squirrels have totally disappeared. Today I found out why, I believe this is an adolescent Coopers Hawk, correct me if I am wrong. I wish that most of his tail feathers were not hidden in these pictures.

Thanks for the replies. I thought that the Sharpie was only about the size of a Jay, this was much larger, but I am definitely no expert.
