This fellow, a Cooper's Hawk I think, seems to have finished a meal and was just hanging out on our back wall, getting his feathers ruffled in a strong wind and checking out the strangely deserted bird feeder. The full sized version is available here (external link) on flickr.

Nice to have them "hang out" that close to the house in my opinion although your other birds surely arent too happy!
