[cayugabirds-l] Coopers Hawk

[Elizabeth Windstein]

Saw a Cooper's hawk at cornell botanic Gardens in the wildflower garden. As I 
was leaving --He flew through the woods and landed on a big branch to eat his 
chipmunk.

Thank you. Liz

Nice Coopers Hawk in my backyard on Simms Hill Rd., Dryden. Making my 
feeder birds nervous.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Coopers Hawk.

[Linda Orkin]

I always look up in the big old cherry tree behind my house when I leave
each morning, still missing the flock of Crows that used to frequent my
yard, until they got chased away by another flock. This is where they used
to perch, waiting for me to put peanuts out for them.   A new flock,
probably the ones that chased them, is starting to get used to my yard now,
and when I came out I was thrilled to see two Crows up there.  No wait, one
Crow at the very top and slightly below and to the left, a Coopers Hawk.
Both were completely silent and still.  Facing each other and so close. I
watched for a minute and then ran in to get a camera.  Too late.  I wish I
would have just stayed and watched.  Interesting dual.

[cayugabirds-l] Coopers Hawk.

[Meena Madhav Haribal]

Just now a Cooper's Hawk flew across the window at less than 10 feet away! 
Looks like a day of the raptors.  About an hour ago the Red-tailed was scaring 
away hordes of starlings that were in front of the green houses on Tower road. 
They flew in nice patterns as the hawk mingled among them.

[cayugabirds-l] Coopers hawk

[Susan Fast]

Several days before Xmas, a friend of ours brought over the remains of a
deer torso he had shot.  We threw it on top of a large brushpile in the yard
to keep the coyotes from dragging it off.  So far it has been a boon to our
4 YARD CROWS  who have spent some of their daytime activities pulling
strips of meat and chiseling off hunks of suet which they then eat or stash
in the neighborhood.  Today Susie excitedly called my attention to very
large COOPERS HAWK perched on the carcass and biting off  suet chunks.  It
fed for about 10 minutes.  It was the largest of this species that either
one of us remembers seeing; it appeared the size of a red-tailed hawk.
Susie got a picture of it as it flew off which shows why they can move so
fast-the amount of extended wing surface appears to dwarf the rest of the
bird.
