I’m confused by the small size of the Cooper in the photo. I have what I thought was a Cooper in my yard but it is easily 3x bigger than the one on the left. I’ve seen it carrying an adult squirrel (struggling but it still made the flight).

What hawk looks like a Cooper but is 3x bigger? Isn’t the other name for a Cooper, Chicken Hawk?
