This hawk has been in that area for over 10 years. I used to live near there. In 2008 he was hit by a golf ball at Legacy Ridge golf course and eventually released back to the area after being cared for by Birds of Prey rehabilitators. You can read about it in a Broomfield Enterprise story. http://www.broomfieldenterprise.com/ci_12783041
