232 Days until the US Open at Chambers Bay

I have been walking Chambers Creek Properties for years. I have been carrying a camera since 2009. With the US Open coming to the Chambers Bay Golf Course, which is part of the property, I have decided to share a picture each day for the 365 days leading up to the tournament. The US Open is scheduled to begin on June 18, 2015. As of today, we are 232 days away.

Today's Picture:
Hawk
Taken on October 29, 2011

As I have already stated, I'm uncomfortable identifying Cooper's Hawks and Sharp-shinned Hawks. I usually just lump them all together. When looking through these pictures, this one seemed different. The bird's shape and the pattern on the underside seemed a little off. This is why I have been guessing that I have seen both species. My guess on this one is that it might be a Sharp-shinned Hawk.
