A few shots of the Cooper's hawks at Riverwood this morning, same spot as last year for those of you who were following them.

Awesome.  I/we haven't been to Riverwood in many months.  Must return.

Dave, these are great. I love the first one.
Nice to see them out in the open before the leaves hide them for another season.
Glad to see they are back. I am waiting for the Buntings and then I'll stroll throught Riverwood once again.

How far away where you when you took the photos?

I am not sure how far...probably 25-35ft......but I have  500mm so seems like I was close when in fact was far enough away that they were not concerned about my presents.



 Thank you to all for your comments..... I saw them again last weekend but not on any nest just in same area
