Women are always carrying their mates by holding their hands when things get tough, cleaning up after them, bailing them out of jail, paying their gambling debts, etc. This however is too much! This drake is too lazy to swim and must be ferried across the Mersey. It’s disgusting! When is it my turn?
This juvenile Coopers hawk is a quick study. It has already learned how to hang meat out to dry. They look like bats. Can you imagine what would happen if we started a fire under that hanging meat and smoked it. Would a Cooper’s hawk even appreciate smoked meat. Want to find out?
Nice rounded head with a slight peak forward of the yellow eye ... a mature Greater scaup.
