Ok, being this has stumped the experts it's time for a clue and bragging rights awarded for correct ID. If ID can't be established another clue will follow.

BTW, the pics were taken in my yard from the dining window.

Yea, bragging rights awarded to rosbifs.
Not common here and the first and only one I ever saw which was in 2005. I understand they are fairly common a couple hundred miles south. If I hadn't seen him / her fly into the tree I would have never known. I first thought a large hawk coming through the yard until it perched itself on the side of that tree trunk at full speed.
Here is another pic.
