The original bird shows pale wing crescents and even spotting down the
breast. I’m not sure why immature Red-Shouldered Hawk should be ruled out
in favor of something more exciting.

Why not an immature Red-shouldered Hawk? Streaking on the breast and long
wings with rather parallel leading and trailing edges fit. Gray Hawk is
chunkier (like a Broad-winged Hawk). There's a picture of an immature on my
