Reminds me of my resident hawk. He/she comes almost daily and sits atop a utility pole much like the one in your photo. Unfortunately I've never been able to get such a lovely close-up shot as my cheap little point and click camera doesn't have the zoom capacity.
They are certainly magnificent birds and when they look directly at you there is a sense of knowledge and wisdom in their eyes.
This looks like a Swainson's hawk. Do you know if it is? I watched them across the street from my MIL this summer in Canada. Awesome birds... I grew to love them as I studied them.

Grand shot. I suggest others to view it in large format !
He's stunning!
They love sitting on poles here too.

Nice shot.
What a focused look he has! Beautiful shot.
What shall I have for dinner, today... We had a hawk that hunted in our neighborhood. It was amazing to watch.
