In need for a raptor identification

[Nelu]

Hello,
Can anyone confirm (or not) if this is a Broad-winged Hawk?
I took the picture in Calgary, in Carburn Park, last weekend.

Thanks!

I think I'll answer my own question
My online research shows this might be a Red-tailed hawk...but again, I might also be wrong.
I attached another photo, taken after the sun was higher up the sky.

Could also be a Cooper's Hawk

The Cornell Lab Merlin bird ID app I am usin is telling me it is a Cooper’s Hawk.

One more vote for the Cooper’s Hawk.

I believe you’re right. It’s an immature Cooper’s Hawk.
Mistery solved!
Thanks guys for taking the time to look it up.

Thanks Eli!
That amazing app easily id-ed the bird either by providing the three primary colors, details about what the bird was doing and the size or by providing a photo of the bird.
Easy-peasy!

The three guys I saw were giving some hard time to a squirrel but the squirrel got away...for now
