This has nothing to do with fishing but we had a visitor to our feeding station this week. I have looked and looked but can't figure out what it is. I imagine it is a young bird but what kind?

You may be right. Not very many hawks have the crest over the eye. The color is a little different but with young birds who knows? Can't find a picture of an immature bird on line. This is the first year we have kept feeders out in the summer. Lots of new friends this year.

I have been feeding all summer. I use chicken scratch feed that I put on the ground. We have doves, Redbirds, sparrows, crows, bluejays and whatever other birds I don't know. Also have a pair of quails that didn't raise any babies, squirrels and rabbits.
some kind of hawk, carefull on them feeding stations, there not allowed anymore, In some countys
Cooper Hawks eat other birds they lake chicken real well he's hunting dinner,
I think we have decided it is an immature peregrine falcon. I can't seem to get a picture that I can post here.

It would be pretty far east, if it were a peregrine, Jeff.
Also, the markings for a juvenile peregrine don't really resemble the one in your yard. Yours has more of a white with brown spots.
A Juvenile Coopers, though....that could be. Can't really see the tail, and I'm not entirely sure of the eye color on your visitor.
Coopers Hawks can be found in Missouri year round. That's my best guess. I'm with Armyman on this one.

Joe, the department of conservation has nesting boxes for peregrine falcons right here in KC
