Several years ago a resident Cooper's Hawk pair in Denver City Park fledged four young, and for the next month or so, they mobbed around together, chasing fox squirrels (which laughed at them) and otherwise practicing for adulthood.

I just received another picture of a single hawk from this group. Seems to be a consensus that these are Coopers hawks.

These hawks were in an large Urban park with lots of large mature cottonwoods in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Houses on one side of the park and a road and some ponds on the other side.

I am leaning towards Cooper's Hawk. I have seen juvenile's in groups like this after fledging.  Of course I never have my camera, so here is a bad cell phone pic.

If they were flying it would be a kettle, what do you call a group of hawks hanging out o the lawn.
