Cooper's Hawks: "Breakfast & Nest Prep"

[Perry J. Greenbaum 🇨🇦 🦜]

Beautiful birds; the intelligence shines on their faces, notably their eyes.

Thanks Perry and agreed. It was fascinating to watch both of them observe the world around them.

Such a blessing Neil! Thank you so much for sharing your time with the Cooper's. It's a blessing for you and all of your readers who also love hawks.

Thanks Pamela and much appreciated. I definitely feel blessed and fortunate to have seen them

You are! Now that weather is looking up I will be glad to get back on the trails here!

[Heidi Zawelevsky]

Fantastic, Neil! You have allowed all of us to share in this experience of the Cooper’s Hawks. The photos are beautiful series.

Thanks Heidi and I do feel fortunate to have seen some of this pair of hawks and their daily lives. :)

[Logan Darrow]

What great photos. I feed birds in my yard every day and as a result have provided a rich hunting ground for a Cooper's Hawk - or maybe it's a pair.

[Neil Barker]

Thanks Logan and the Cooper's Hawk are definitely interesting to watch. Could be a pair as well.
