...same bird as in preceding photo photographed from a different angle.
Cooper's Hawk is a medium-sized hawk native to North America, found from Canada across the United States south to Mexico. As with many birds of prey, the male is smaller than the female and birds found east of the Mississippi River tend to be larger on average than the birds to the west.
It's a member of the goshawk genus Accipiter. The bird was named after naturalist William Cooper, one of the founders of the New York Lyceum of Natural History (later the New York Academy of Sciences) in New York. Other common names include Big Blue Darter, Chicken Hawk, Hen Hawk, Mexican Hawk, Quail Hawk, Striker and Swift Hawk.
The breeding range of the Cooper's Hawk extends from southern Canada to northern Mexico. They are generally distributed more to the South than the other North American Accipiters. Birds from most of the Canadian and northern-U.S.-range migrate in winter, and some Cooper's Hawks winter as far south as Panama. The Cooper's Hawk prefers to nest in wooded areas adjacent to wide open fields that provide hunting opportunities along the edges.
Cooper's Hawks capture prey from cover or while flying quickly through dense vegetation, relying almost totally on surprise. Most prey are mid-sized birds, with typical prey including American Robins, jays, woodpeckers, European Starlings, and doves. Cooper's Hawks also eat small mammals, especially rodents such as chipmunks and tree squirrels. Other possibilities are lizards, frogs, snakes, and large insects. They are increasingly seen hunting small songbirds in backyards with feeders and birdbaths. They will perch in trees overlooking the feeders, then swoop down and scatter the birds in order to capture one in flight.

"The only way to solve a conflict is through negotiations. Negotiations not just on questions of positions and bargaining, but an attempt to really understand what the other side needs. They have to understand what you need, so that you can try and come up with a solution that is going to give everyone a bit of what they need. No one is going to get everything they want in a conflict situation."

Bangor bounce back against Ballymoney
by Roger Corbett
Putting the disappointment of last week’s defeat at Instonians behind them, Bangor produced a solid performance at home to beat Ballymoney by 20-13.
This was going to be an interesting and important fixture given the nature of Bangor’s defeat against Instonians and Ballymoney’s win at Portadown last weekend. Although at different ends of the league, the earlier meeting at Kilraughts Road was a dogged affair, with Bangor only managing to get on top within the closing stages of the game. Starting as favourites for this fixture, Bangor started brightly, but after 23 minutes of missed opportunities by Bangor, it was Ballymoney who started the scoring with a penalty. This was the spur the home side needed, and just 5 minutes later Mike Aspley, making a welcome return from injury, made a great run through the centre before passing to Mark Widdowson on the left wing. Mark’s clever chip over the advancing defence was caught cleanly and then carried over for an unconverted try, and putting Bangor ahead by 5-3.
Ballymoney returned to the attack and pushed Bangor back into their own twenty two. Although on the back foot, Bangor secured their scrum and quickly broke out of defence. It was Aspley again who made the decisive break before passing to Davy Charles on the right wing. Although chased down by the Ballymoney winger, Charles shrugged off the tackle to score under the posts, which Widdowson subsequently converted, for a half time lead of 12-3.
Bangor looked good for their two tries so far, but if their off-loads when tackled and handling in general had been more controlled, there is every chance they could have secured a 4-try bonus point by half this stage. Hopes were therefore high that they would settle quickly in the second half and steadily work towards this.
Unfortunately, from the opening kick-off by Ballymoney, Bangor knocked the ball on, giving the visitors an attacking scrum inside Bangor’s twenty two. However, the forwards had proved strong so far, and were causing problems for their opponents. On this occasion, a concerted push overpowered the Ballymoney pack, and Bangor were able to turn the ball over, winning a penalty in the process. With this initial panic over, Bangor built good attacking platforms but, just like in the first half, their passing and handling fell short at crucial moments and more scoring chances went begging. Bangor’s frustration was compounded after just 8 minutes when a Ballymoney penalty was kicked to touch, deep inside their opponent’s twenty two. From the resulting line-out, the Ballymoney forwards produced a driving maul that Bangor were unable to stop, resulting in a try, which was also converted, narrowing the score to 12-10.
Once again, it looked like Ballymoney weren’t going to lie down. The touchline spectators may have been getting a little nervous, but the Bangor men stuck to the task and after a further 13 minutes were rewarded with another good score. From another secure Bangor scrum in their own half, Curtis Stewart picked up at number eight and barged his way through the immediate Ballymoney defence. Having broken through the line, he passed to Charles on his right. Once again Charles sprinted off down the touchline, and again was pursued by his opposite number. This time the tackle was more effective, but Charles’ pace was enough to see him squeeze over in the corner for his second try. Widdowson’s conversion wide, but the lead was now a little more comfortable at 17-10.
By now, Bangor’s forwards were dominating the scrums and, having won a penalty inside Ballymoney’s twenty two, and in front of the posts, it may have crossed captain Jamie Clegg’s mind to go for another scrum which would hopefully build a good platform to go for their bonus point try. However at this stage in the game, and with only a converted try between the two sides, Clegg wisely opted for the kick at goal, which Widdowson successfully converted, stretching the lead to 20-10 and denying the visitors a losing bonus point.
From the restart, Bangor repeated their earlier mistake by knocking the ball on again. Further mistakes shortly afterwards gave Ballymoney a penalty which they successfully kicked, bring the score back to 20-13, and restoring their losing bonus point.
As the game entered its final minutes, Bangor looked strong and were pressing forward again. However, more knock-ons saw another opportunity go begging and, before they could apply more pressure to the now-tiring Ballymoney scrum, the referee blew for full time. Bangor will be thankful to have returned to winning ways, and without any serious injury concerns. However, the poor display in basic ball-handling skills was costly as it undoubtedly denied them a valuable bonus point.
Next week sees Bangor travel to Armagh to play their 2nds in the Towns Cup. This will certainly be a stern test but will also help to prepare for Bangor’s biggest game in recent years – the final of the All Ireland Junior Cup against Dundalk the following week. With Bangor’s 2nds and 3rds performing well and sitting at or near the top of their respective leagues, and also still in cup competitions, these are exciting times at Upritchard Park.

Kentwell - a very different experience: a romantic, completely moated, mellow redbrick Tudor mansion in a tranquil parkland setting - but so much more.
A 30+ years Restoration Project
In 1970 Kentwell stood neglected. No-one was prepared to take it on - except Patrick Phillips. He fell for this wonderful House in its magical setting and was not deterred by its condition. Ever since then he has, with his wife and family, sought to bring Kentwell back to life. Their works have taken part of the House and its 15th Century Service Building back to the 16th Century. Elsewhere changes reflect their own preferences. House, Gardens & Farm have an unrivalled ability to captivate the visitor.
Take a glimpse into both the past and present of this unique House. Enjoy its delightful Gardens. You can do this whenever you come but especially if you visit during one of the award-winning Re-Creations of Tudor or WWII Everyday Life and (recently) Victorian life. Kentwell pioneered Tudor domestic Living History Events in the UK, and nearly 30 years on the Re-Creations are as magical as ever.
This thunderstorm over the City of Günzburg/Bavaria/South Germany was the result of two weeks of extreme heat! And that was no fun! Up to 37 deg. celsius, and high humidity,
that's really extreme for germany! Image shot from my south window.
This one is my favorite from the Lightning images of that storm. On the right side you can see the different colours of the flash. Most propably because of a temperature difference, maybe because of the doppler effect?
