Thanks, Tig. I'm not sure if this is a falcon or a hawk.
The short beak makes me think falcon, but it's hard to tell without seeing the rest of the bird.
Here's a Cooper's Hawk on our fence, shot through the kitchen window. I'm surprised it turned out at all.

Petty damn good for through the window shooting.
This is a Falcon as opposed to a hawk. The short beak allows them to kill their prey as opposed to a Hawk or EAGLE which kill with their talons.
Beg to differ. Pretty sure it's a Red Tailed Hawk, the most common of the Eastern US buteos (soaring hawks), the quintessential hawk perched on a telephone pole or in a road-side tree. Compare it to this online photo of a Red Tailed--same bird:
P.S. Nice photo, Pete!
