I've received several replys concerning the accipiter sighting, and the expert opinion is the bird is a Cooper's Hawk. Thanks for the input.

--Today, a juvenile Northern Goshawk was observed in downtown Brunswick. It was perched on a weathervane on the church steeple at the intersection of Pleasant Street and Maine Street. After first sighting the bird at 11:30 am, it was still perched on the weathervane when I drove by two hours later. Definitely a strange place for this forest accipiter.
