kd_reno Goldmember More info | Jul 30, 2017 22:41 | #1 A pair of Cooper's Hawks nested somewhere nearby and now that the young are flying they've been spending a lot of time in the trees next door. Yesterday my wife saw one make a pass at our Jack Russell. This morning one of the juveniles came after a small Cottontail and flew within 10 feet of me, then landed on my fences and posed for a few minutes.

The juveniles have been making a lot of noise and the dog's been barking at them. He's about 17 lbs so I doubt they view him as lunch. CaptBob wrote in post #18415447 lucky you and also lucky us!

I think the youngsters are more curious than wary right now. Ken

I have a cooper stop by now and then and helps himself to my yard birds. We've found feathers before, and several times we've seen them in the peach tree with our feeders about 15 feet outside the kitchen window.That's a Niger sock in the second shot. I'd guess that almost anyone that has feeders has accipiters visiting regularly.  Cooper's Hawk by Ken Drozd on Flickr Cooper's Hawk by Ken Drozd on FlickrKen
