Yesterday afternoon, a Cooper's Hawk flew across the front yard, grabbed something out of a shrub and flew off.
This morning, I was outside and saw a red-tailed hawk flying overhead, then it came back towards the house being closed followed by another smaller hawk. They were silent in their flight. I'm not sure if the smaller hawk was a Cooper's or if it was another red-tailed hawk (Dave pointed out that the females are much larger than the males). I called Dave down to see them and at that point we saw another red-tailed in the back tree, while the other two were still flying around. Very exciting to see so much action. Our feeder birds will have to be careful today with so many predators hanging around.
