Title: Coopers Hawk on nest with young
Post by: steve rossi on June 08, 2011, 06:44:25 PM

This is the young Coopers Hawk I posted earlier, now on the nest with three young. It was so hot they were panting. Unusual for a bird this young to be breeding.

It wasn`t until I saw this picture on the computer ,that I realized there were three young, the one under her tail seems to be the smallest.
