Cooper's Hawk: "Nesting"

[James Freitas]

Great sijo and essay, Neil! As far as knowing which bird is male and which is female, the best way to learn is to observe, and you will only continue to thoroughly observe these hawks. Thank you for writing along the way.

[Neil Barker]

Thanks James and I'm hoping to have some more updates in the coming weeks. Perhaps we'll get to see some nestlings.

[Michael]

Greatly look forward to that.

[Neil Barker]

Thanks Michael and more to follow in the coming months!

Wonderful photos; the hawks might be getting used to your presence. Trust.

[Neil Barker]

Thanks Perry and I hope so.

Wonderful update on the Cooper’s Hawks! The poem has a lofty perspective and sets the stage for the notes and photos which are amazing. Thank you, Neil.

Thanks Heidi and much appreciated.

From what I have read Neil the eyes are a sign of maturity. I love that they are so trusting of you! Keep these updates coming!

[Neil Barker]

Thanks Pamela. Will definitely provide some updates in the coming weeks! :)

A home in the sky, now I'm dreaming! Great photos, thank you for sharing - it's wonderful the way the sun lights up those leaves!
