Cooper Hawk Nest Active April 17, 2013

In early April 2013 I noticed a large stick nest up in the trees on my way home from work. It is not even 2 minutes from my house. This is a perfect place for a bird of prey nest. I decided to start to watch it on my way home - at this time no leaves on the trees so a very good chance to see a hawk. On April 17 I noticed a good sized hawk sitting on the nest. I emailed Lee right away. I pulled over and took a few photos. It was a Cooper Hawk female sitting on the nest. So the watch is on now.
