Female Cooper Hawk July 3, 2013

For the first time today at the nest the female was very aggressive. With the eyas now flying all over the woods - I walked down the hill I felt something land beside me. The female was on the branch beside me. There is no sunlight in the woods so all the photos are a bit dark. I moved back up to the top of the woods and sat on the flower bed rail. She then flew right above me. She watched me and I watched her - honestly didn't want to move until she left. Finally she took off and came into the nest with food.
