Hawkeye

We've been getting what seems like hundreds of goldfinches, pine siskins, and a great variety of birds at our feeder this winter and when they're gone, there's usually a reason. Meet the reason. This young Cooper's hawk shows up every once in a while hoping for a morsel. Thankfully, he usually finds one elsewhere!

Oh dear! What do you want,.. the little birds .. or this majestic and very superior bird!

He really is the king of the castle, no wonder the other birds have gone to ground. He is a beauty though

An excellent capture of this hunter. I don't like it that I have one of the same haunting my yard in search of a meal. I just wish he'd go look at the menu in some other place other than where I feed little birdies.

Awesome details, smart tiny birds to go to the neighbors house when the boss shows up.

You nailed this shot. What a beautiful bird!

I remember the moment when I was shooting a group of sparrows, and suddenly they all disappeared, in my case, I am not rewarded by hawks, just an aggressive tui. You got all the details.

What a beautiful bird. Great captured.
December 17th, 2020  
Wonderful capture and edit!

A terrific capture! I like the fine feather detail and his steely look.

Gorgeous! Out for some tasty pickins!

Stunning..instant fav
December 18th, 2020  
That would do it!

Great shot of him- I've seen a couple Goldfinches get picked off by the Red Shoulder Hawks who sometimes fly through the woods out back. It's so depressing! Feathers flying everywhere- poof! I know it's all a part of the cycle of life, but I wish I didn't have to see it so graphically. Again- great shot!
December 18th, 2020  
Beautiful capture.
December 18th, 2020  
great shot, jenn. from my balcony, sometimes i see little birds chasing a hawk. maybe the hawk's been a badass, but it's like seeing little davids chasing the big bad goliath. aces!
December 18th, 2020  
Amazing portrait! Great details and color.
December 18th, 2020  
Awesome shot! That fence looks very familiar. =)

Raptors are really not welcome in my garden since one all but wiped out the small bird population a few years ago & it still has’nt recovered.. Nature can be cruel!
