Have a great weekend stay safe! :)

Oh how I wish I had taken this photo of my nine month old Dalmatian "Cooper"

We put Cooper into the kennels at Sarah's Pet Services near Elgin in Morayshire for a couple of days.

This amazing photo showing Cooper appearing to fly was taken by Sam who works for Sarah, on her phone.

A helluva photo Sam:-)))

Added some texture for this portrait! A bird expert said maybe over age 2yrs. Outer texture is my own, softening texture from Anna Lenabem.

He was playing park greeter, right at the circle.

Cooper's Hawk

It is amazing to watch these Hawks...how still and motionless they are!

 

Spotted this immature Cooper's Hawk perched near a trail in the RBG Cootes Paradise Sanctuary, Hamilton, Ontario.

(Accipiter cooperii)

Dining on a Gamble's quail by my kitchen door. He plucked the quail, ate 1/3 of him and left the carcass on my favorite chair. I cleaned up the mess not realizing he would return the next morning for breakfast. I'll know better next time.

Close up view of a Cooper’s Hawk.

A pair of Cooper's Hawks were busy flying to various trees and trying to extract some twigs. They were then flying back to another tree that was being used to build a nest. It was quite a neat experience and they let me get a bunch of images while they worked on their material gathering.

Cooper's Hawk, Wildwood Lake, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Cooper's Hawk. This hawk hunts around our neighborhood. He chased a pigeon into one of our windows, killing it instantly. He was not leaving without that pigeon, so he let me get unusually close to take some pictures.

Sunset seen from our camp by the Cooper Creek at Innamincka, South Australia. It was enough to make us stay for another day.

Dashing through vegetation to catch birds is a dangerous lifestyle. In a study of more than 300 Cooper’s Hawk skeletons, 23 percent showed old, healed-over fractures in the bones of the chest, especially of the furcula, or wishbone.

Great to see the Cooper's Hawks back in our river valley, however the small birds, chipmunks and squirrels definitely wouldn't agree !!

This Coopers Hawk has discovered that my yard is easy pickings for lunch and dinner. However, since he was looking for his fast food every day, he scared off most of my birds. It took about a month to see the regulars at the bird feeder again. I actually started to feel sorry for this hawk. He would show up multiple times in one day and would even hang out for a while. This hawk must've been very hungry. Eventually he moved on

My closest encounter with one of these.

Posing for a portrait on my fence.

A surprise find in my backyard - a little cooper's hawk with a fresh kill. I slowly stepped out into my backyard and photographed this bird enjoying it's fresh kill. Was sadly harassed by a very brave red squirrel and eventually took it's kill away into the bushes.

I have been observing a Cooper's Hawk nest here for the past few weeks. These are two of the three young ones that survived to this stage. These flew away from the nest three days ago. Their younger sibling was still on the nest yesterday, but was hopping around and wing-flapping to get a purchase on branches higher up from the nest. It will join its siblings soon.

 

The parents were very much in evidence. They were calling and swooping through the dense forest habitat.
