He took off just as I raised my camera... I think it's a juvenile northern goshawk, but I'm not 100% sure. Any help would be appreciated.

PS: Photos were taken in Northern British Columbia.

Awesome, thanks for the ID! Wish I had better shots, he was on a telephone pole in front of my house so I'm hoping he'll return.
