Checklist link: Cooper’s Hawk (Accipiter Cooperii)
This Cooper’s Hawk first showed up the day prior to getting the full-sized picture. We could only see the bird’s feet in the video feed. It definitely looked like a much larger bird than we had seen in a while. Luckily, the hawk showed up the next morning and perched above the bird feeder long enough to get a decent picture of it. In comparing the pictures on ebird to the picture we took, it seems like a younger female. The legs aren’t as thick, and the colorings are brown and white as opposed to other colorings. Once again, I am not an expert on birds, this is just a guess based off of the other pictures given in the description on the ebird site.
