Had a Cooper's Hawk stop by the other day. I can usually tell when there's a predator nearby because I don't see any animals in either of the yards.

This one was on a branch, just sunning itself.

Agility in the open sky. 🌿 This Cooper's Hawk was effortlessly patrolling the thermal currents this afternoon, showing off those classic barred tail feathers against the New Mexico blue. 🪶✨

1 There has been a pair of these hawks (I think it's just a pair, but could be wrong, not sure how large their territories are) around for the last number of years, once or twice nesting right on the acreage in the woods just behind the house. We thought they might be choosing the acreage again this year (vs further out onto the farm in the contiguous woods), but today I saw them some distance out.

My gateway to bird photography: in 2021 a pair of Cooper’s Hawks built a nest in the yard and raised a chick, which rapidly morphed from a cute ball of cottony fluff into a skillful apex predator. Here he is somewhere in-between. Nicknamed “Anderson Cooper’s Hawk” (parents: Sadie Hawkins and Agent Cooper) quickly grew indifferent to the human who regularly pointed a 2013-era camera at him. #hawk #CoopersHawk #GatewayBird #photography #birds #birders #BirdWatching #BirdWatchers #California #LosAngeles #BirdPhoto #GriffithPark #DailyBird #BirdsOfPixelfed #BirdADay #DailyBird #BirdOfTheDay #LARiver #LosAngelesRiver #Opus1000 #BirdsOfMastodon #cute #NaturePhotos #LAWildlife
