[obol] A bird in the hand . . .

[Holly Reinhard]

I wouldn't mind a small tutorial about identifying
Cooper's vs. Sharp-shinned. :) I still write on
birdnotes "accipiter spp.". scandalous, I know. 
So pictures would be awesome. If it's too preachy for
Obol, please reply to me offline, but I think many of
us birders that are less well-versed in accipiter ID
would like to see the pics and tips. :)
thanks,
