Thank you for all of the emails, it was good to hear I'm not the only one who has trouble with raptor ID. Much respect to everyone out at Bradbury Mountain right now. Five people weighed in on my raptor... Here were the votes:
(3) Red Shouldered Hawk (one person specified juvenile)
(1) Juvenile Red Tailed Hawk
(1) Merlin (with this description: There is a hint of a mustache in the head shot, the tail is barred, and the breast streaking pattern rules out accipiters and buteos.)
Looks like I'm going to have to do some google image searching to see if I can find my bird.
