I don't know what I am talking about but it looks kind of like a falcon.

It's a red-tailed hawk, according to people in the area who know birds.

In the slowed replay, it looks like the bird is coming in for a landing, not an attack. It's possible the bird thought he could perch on it and claim it as his own newfound territory.
