Hawk in tree---ID?

Saw this bird in a tree near my house today. Anyone know what species it is?

Can't help with the ID but I like the shot. Well done.

Your location would assist in identifying. There is something odd about the appearance of this hawk, to me. is he wet or sick? At first, I thought Red-shouldered Hawk but the black face has me puzzled.

I am in central Florida.

boy that's a tough one i looked in my raptors books and i couldn't find anything.

Powerful-looking, colorful bird. Is this it?

Someone told me they think it's a Cooper's Hawk.

It is not a Cooper's hawk. Do yo have any other views of the bird you can post? Because it is wet and bedraggled and its plumage is all awry, ID is difficult with this view.

What I can discern from his chest feathers that arent wet and whatever is that he is a red shouldered or broad wing. We dont really have all that many species of hawks around here. Too bad you only have the one angle.

But............I still dont know.

I vote a wet, dark-morph Red-shouldered Hawk...having a really bad day. Even so, the legs looks pretty "thick" which make me wonder. You should post this on birdforum.net in the ID section - those guys know everything.
