Yard bird … Hunting my feeders. Finally got a decent pic.
Hopefully I will not get accused of baiting, but this Cooper’s Hawk was interested in:
* Cardinals
* Chickadees
* Juncos
* Mourning Doves
* Nuthatches (Red and White-Breasted)
* Squirrels (Gray and Red)
* Woodpeckers (Downey, Hairy, Pileated & Red Bellied)
I understand via a friend who stayed in our house recently that it has already caught one of my Cardinals … who knows what else.
Oh, you bad bird. Stay away from those cardinals. Get some English Sparrows, I understand they are quite tasty.
LOL! Wish my hawk friend did prefer English cuisine!
Summer before last we had a Cooper’s hawk ( or two ) as very frequent yard visitors. I love all birds, but it was disheartening to see this predator’s easy hunting in our in town yard.
