I agree that it's Cooper's Hawk (or possibly some other hawk). Not an owl.

I didn't jump into this thread right away because these little owls
that are considered boring in their calls can be pretty rough to id.

I sat on this recording for more than a year before I decided it was
a saw-whet.  But still the bird was never seen and the sound seems to
have been made right after making a kill.

Do you agree with me that this too is a saw-whet owl?
