I was driving just behind the Rainbow grocery store on 12th in Forest Lake (just across from Target and Wal-Mart) when a Cooper's Hawk came swooping up from someone's yard with a sparrow-sized bird, flew into a row of pine trees and began to dine. Birders who live in Forest Lake might want to watch for it, see if it's consistently in the area (I am not...)
