I'd opt for Brown Goshawk or Collared Sparrowhawk. Certainly not Black-shouldered Kite, Grey Goshawk or Grey Falcon. I'm not sure there is enough to go on to pick between Brown Goshawk and Collared Sparrowhawk - "About the size of...." is notoriously unreliable, and I'm not sure the standard of the pic gives enough else to distinguish between them, bu I may be proved wrong on that.
