[cobirds] Photos of Peregrine Falcon eating a large bird near Canon City

I finally edited a series of photos of a Peregrine Falcon I found perched on top of a utility pole just east of Canon City eating it's large avian prey.  I have a good photo of it with a good sized bird foot in it's beak that I think may be another raptor as it has very long nails, possibly a Cooper's or Sharp-shinned Hawk.  I have uploaded the photos to my Birds and Nature blog and welcome any ideas about the identification of the species to which the leg belongs.
